Overview

About 1 Pipers Lane

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

1 Pipers Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Aley Green, Luton, Luton (LU1 4DS). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1539 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2007–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £775,000 is 29.2% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£390/sq ft) was about 31.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Pipers Lane is modelled from its 143 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LU1 4DS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Pipers Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Pipers Lane was lodged in February 2012 at band D and expired in February 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 1 Pipers Lane. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 10 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU1 4DS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Pipers Lane is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
