About 22 The Slade
22 The Slade is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Clophill, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2025) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 67), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
