About 7a

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

7a is a semi-detached house in Flitwick, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 1DE). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C.

Held since December 2007 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
