About The Elms
The Elms is a four-bedroom detached house in Aley Green, Luton, Luton (LU1 4DS). It has a recorded floor area of 339 m² (around 3649 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in April 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe and a basement.
At 339 m² the property is well over the postcode median (161 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,018,000 sits 99.6% above the 2014 sale of £510,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£140/sq ft) was about 54.4% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in February 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
