Overview

About 5 Corncastle Road

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

5 Corncastle Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU1 5HB). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).

It hasn't traded since December 2007, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 48 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2007–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 21.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £299,000 sits 89.2% above the 2007 sale of £158,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
