Overview

About 12 Park Lane

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

12 Park Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Blunham, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3NH). It has a recorded floor area of 161 m² (around 1733 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2025) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.

It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £757,000 sits 51.4% above the 2009 sale of £499,950. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
