Overview

About 8 Granville Road

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

8 Granville Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU1 1PA). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows a G (score 10), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 37). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £176,000 sits 67.6% above the 2011 sale of £105,000.
