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 £437,000 sits 94.2% 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.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Cainhoe Road is modelled from its 107 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in MK45 4AN. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Cainhoe Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Cainhoe Road was lodged in October 2011 at band D and expired in October 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Cainhoe Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 3 schools and 27 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK45 4AN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Cainhoe Road is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
