1 Denel Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Flitwick, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 1BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1164 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in September 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 108 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £553,000 sits 121.2% above the 2009 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 16.6% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
