About 16 Fishers Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

16 Fishers Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Great Barford, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3JL). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1862 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band G.

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 16 Fishers Close is modelled from its 173 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in MK44 3JL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 16 Fishers Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 16 Fishers Close was lodged in March 2015 at band D and expired in March 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 16 Fishers Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 19 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK44 3JL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
16 Fishers Close is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
