Overview

About 1 Elaine Gardens

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

1 Elaine Gardens is a detached house in Woodside, Luton, Luton (LU1 4DL). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1191 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2008–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 60.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £558,000 is 44.9% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£323/sq ft) was about 16.1% below the postcode norm.
