Overview

About 4 Rye Crescent

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

4 Rye Crescent is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cople, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 77 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). Today's modelled estimate of £333,000 sits 51.4% above the 2015 sale of £220,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£265/sq ft) was about 71.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in July 2015.
