Overview

About 1a

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

1a is a detached house in Luton (LU1 5HG). It has a recorded floor area of 26 m² (around 280 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since October 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

At 26 m² it sits well below the postcode median (67 m² across 55 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
