Overview

About The Elms

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

The Elms is a four-bedroom detached house in Aley Green, Luton, Luton (LU1 4DS). It has a recorded floor area of 184 m² (around 1981 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe and a basement.

2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £714,000 is 40% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£258/sq ft) was about 16% below the postcode norm. Last sold in February 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
