About 4 Clifton Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Clifton Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU1 1PB). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2011. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £207,000 sits 112.3% above the 2012 sale of £97,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£100/sq ft) was about 25% below the postcode norm. At 91 m² it's 28.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (71 m² median across 38 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 15 years ago, in February 2012.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 4 Clifton Road is modelled from its 91 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LU1 1PB. 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 4 Clifton Road. 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 4 Clifton Road was lodged in November 2014 at band E and expired in November 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 4 Clifton Road. 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 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU1 1PB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 4 Clifton Road 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.
