1 The Compasses, High Street, Clophill, Bedford, MK45 4AF

1 The Compasses is a five-bedroom detached house in Clophill, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4AF). It has a recorded floor area of 236 m² (around 2540 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from August 2015, 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 £788,000 sits 215.2% above the 1997 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£98/sq ft) was about 67.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
