Overview

About 1 Cainhoe Road

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

1 Cainhoe Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Clophill, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4AN). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1156 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2011) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from October 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Across 1997–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £427,000 sits 89.8% above the 2012 sale of £225,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£195/sq ft) was about 37.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 14 years ago, in March 2012.
