Overview

About 21 Rye Crescent

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

21 Rye Crescent is a semi-detached house in Cople, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 111 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 46 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
