About 9 Dunsmore Road

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

9 Dunsmore Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Luton (LU1 5JU). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D.
