Overview

About 8 Buttermere Close

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

8 Buttermere Close is an end-of-terrace house in Flitwick, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 1NG). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 2007 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £329,000 sits 81.8% above the 2007 sale of £181,000.
