12a, Willington Road, Cople, Bedford, MK44 3TH

12a is a detached house in Cople, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3TH). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in February 2020 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since October 1997 — that's 29 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. Today's modelled estimate of £573,000 sits 316.7% above the 1997 sale of £137,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£91/sq ft) was about 51.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
