Overview

About 42 Bedfordshire Way

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

42 Bedfordshire Way is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wokingham (RG41 3BA). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Most recent transfer: February 2022 at £265,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
