About 45 Clipstone Cottages
45 Clipstone Cottages is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Barton-Le-Clay, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4LL). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
It hasn't traded since November 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £280,000 sits 259% above the 1998 sale of £78,000.
