Overview

About 16 The Slade

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

16 The Slade is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Clophill, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 95), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (109 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £276,000 sits 71.9% above the 2014 sale of £160,523. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£298/sq ft) was about 66.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 12 years since the last transfer (August 2014).
