Overview

About 23 Barton Road

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

23 Barton Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Gravenhurst, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4JP). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £291,000 sits 115.6% above the 2012 sale of £135,000. At 65 m² it sits well below the postcode median (126 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). 14 years since the last transfer (October 2012). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.
