Overview

About 21a

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

21a is a mid-terrace house in Luton (LU1 2NA). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2021) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). At 50 m² this is the 35th smallest of 68 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 22–75 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 68 units on file.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. 9 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 30.6% per year.
