Overview

About 5 Culworth Close

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

5 Culworth Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Caddington, Luton, Luton (LU1 4HX). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft) and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump.

Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 59 m² it sits well below the postcode median (101 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year.
