About 40 Beech Road

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

40 Beech Road is a mid-terrace house in Luton (LU1 1DP). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
