Overview

About 96a

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

96a is a four-bedroom detached house in Flitton, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 5DR). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows an F (score 23), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it D (August 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 53). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £729,000 sits 55.1% above the 2009 sale of £470,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£397/sq ft) was about 56.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 96a is modelled from its 110 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK45 5DR. 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 96a. 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 96a was lodged in March 2012 at band F and expired in March 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 96a. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK45 5DR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
96a is in council tax band G. 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.
