Overview

About 57 Bedford Road

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

57 Bedford Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Willington, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3PP). It has a recorded floor area of 166 m² (around 1787 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 166 m² the property is well over the postcode median (98 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: partial demolition approved in 2025. Past consents include partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £655,000 is 42.4% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£257/sq ft) was about 35.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
