Overview

About 1 St James Close

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

1 St James Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Pulloxhill, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 5HF). It has a recorded floor area of 171 m² (around 1841 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 171 m² the property is well over the postcode median (121 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2000. Past consents include an extension, a porch and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2000–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £659,000 is 29.2% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£277/sq ft) was about 56.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
