Overview

About 8 Linden Court

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

8 Linden Court is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Luton (LU2 0AW). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 60 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 7 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 59–69 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (October 2022) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 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. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £151,000 sits 125.4% above the 2007 sale of £67,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£104/sq ft) was about 30% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 Linden Court is modelled from its 60 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LU2 0AW. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 8 Linden Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 8 Linden Court was lodged in October 2022 at band D and is valid until October 2032. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 8 Linden Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 33 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU2 0AW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Linden Court is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
