About Malin Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Malin Court is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Barton-Le-Clay, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band A. At 39 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Malin Court (39–84 m²). On EPC score it ranks last in the building (78 versus a best of 80). The latest certificate (September 2020) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band.
It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 39 m² it sits well below the postcode median (86 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £183,000 is 22% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£357/sq ft) was about 41% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Malin Court is modelled from its 39 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK45 4LQ. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Malin Court. 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 Malin Court was lodged in September 2020 at band C and is valid until September 2030. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Malin Court. 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 2 schools and 16 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK45 4LQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Malin Court is in council tax band A. 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.
