Overview

About 8 Bedford Avenue

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

8 Bedford Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Stafford (ST16 3LH). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1117 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 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. At 104 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £198,000 sits 102% above the 2009 sale of £98,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£88/sq ft) was about 37.1% below the postcode norm.
