Overview

About 5 Burr Close

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

5 Burr Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Barton-Le-Clay, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2023) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £399,000 sits 81.4% above the 2009 sale of £220,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£276/sq ft) was about 153.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 74 m² it's 21.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (95 m² median across 4 EPCs).
