Local market context
Police House is a two-bedroom detached house in Barton-Le-Clay, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 204 m² (around 2196 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1950-1966. Other recorded features include notable views. The latest certificate (June 2024) shows a C (score 72).
It hasn't traded since May 2000, a hold of 26 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. At 204 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £678,000 sits 298.8% above the 2000 sale of £170,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 69.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2000. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
Police House's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
