About 47a
47a is an end-of-terrace house in Luton (LU1 3QH). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in February 2022 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since February 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. Today's modelled estimate of £137,000 sits 95.7% above the 2007 sale of £70,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£103/sq ft) was about 31.8% below the postcode norm.
