Overview

About 1a

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

1a is a detached house in Haynes, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 3PL). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1345 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in September 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £597,000 sits 292.8% above the 1997 sale of £152,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£113/sq ft) was about 48.1% below the postcode norm. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs).
