Overview

About 2b

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

2b is a two-bedroom detached house in Maulden, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 2DL). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft). The latest certificate (December 2014) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 93). The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

At 102 m² it's 26.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (138 m² median across 11 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 2015–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£364/sq ft) was about 32% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
