Overview

About 9 Bluebellwood Close

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

9 Bluebellwood Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU1 5RT). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for an extension is awaiting a decision. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in September 2015. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £312,000 is 46.8% above the 2015 sale price.
