About 18 Markyate Road

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

18 Markyate Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Slip End, Luton, Luton (LU1 4BX). It has a recorded floor area of 184 m² (around 1981 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E.
