About 55 Crawley Road

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

55 Crawley Road is a five-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU1 1HX). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1485 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 3-band jump.
