Overview

About 7 Bedford Road

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

7 Bedford Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Willington, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3PP). It has a recorded floor area of 176 m² (around 1891 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60). The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 176 m² the property is well over the postcode median (106 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £569,000 sits 394.8% above the 1995 sale of £115,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£61/sq ft) was about 70.2% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a garage conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

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 7 Bedford Road is modelled from its 176 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK44 3PP. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 7 Bedford Road. 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 7 Bedford Road was lodged in December 2008 at band E and expired in December 2018, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 7 Bedford Road. 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 3 schools and 25 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK44 3PP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
7 Bedford Road is in council tax band F. 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.
