Overview

About 32a

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

32a is a four-bedroom detached house in Cople, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3TU). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft). The latest certificate (May 2014) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 92).

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 32a is modelled from its 118 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK44 3TU. 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 32a. 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 32a was lodged in May 2014 at band B and expired in May 2024, 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. 15 applications are matched to 32a. 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 1 school and 29 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK44 3TU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
