Overview

About 17 Silsoe Road

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

17 Silsoe Road is a semi-detached house in Maulden, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 2AX). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2000 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1997–2000, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £463,000 sits 235.5% above the 2000 sale of £138,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£134/sq ft) was about 55.6% below the postcode norm. At 96 m² it sits well below the postcode median (168 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, an annexe and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 17 Silsoe Road is modelled from its 96 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in MK45 2AX. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 17 Silsoe Road. 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 17 Silsoe Road was lodged in June 2016 at band D and expired in June 2026, 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. 3 applications are matched to 17 Silsoe Road. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK45 2AX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Silsoe Road is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
