About 3f
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3f is an end-of-terrace house in Luton (LU1 1EN). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2014. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, lighting went from Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. At 53 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 42–195 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 9 units on file.
Held since May 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £166,000 is 23% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£237/sq ft) was about 21.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 53 m² it's 18.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (65 m² median across 8 EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3f is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LU1 1EN. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 3f. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3f was lodged in March 2026 at band D and is valid until March 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3f. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU1 1EN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3f is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
