48 Front Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Slip End, Luton, Luton (LU1 4BS). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2010. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
