About 5 Barford Road

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

5 Barford Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Willington, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3QP). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£234/sq ft) was about 31.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019.
