About 91 High Road

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

91 High Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cotton End, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 3AX). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 70 m² it's 16.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (60 m² median across 15 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Across 1999–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year.
