Overview

About 132a

132a is an end-of-terrace house in Luton (LU1 1EW). It has a recorded floor area of 35 m² (around 377 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 35 m² this is the 6th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 19–62 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 18 units on file. The latest certificate (September 2023) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73).

Today's modelled estimate of £145,000 is 58.6% below the 2024 sale of £350,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.
