Overview

About 155 Dunstable Road

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

155 Dunstable Road is an end-of-terrace house in Luton (LU1 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 94 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 90–94 m². On EPC score it ranks last in the building (60 versus a best of 65). The latest certificate (July 2019) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).

Held since April 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £166,000 sits 577.6% above the 1999 sale of £24,500.
