Overview

About Point Red

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

Point Red is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU2 0BL). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2020) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The rating has held steady at B across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good. At 53 m² this is the 28th smallest of 39 units on EPC record in Point Red, where floor areas span 35–65 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top.

It hasn't traded since September 2008, 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. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 53 m² it's 19.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (44 m² median across 75 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £160,000 is 18.5% above the 2008 sale price.
