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 £158,000 is 17% above the 2008 sale price.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Point Red is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LU2 0BL. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Point Red. 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 Point Red was lodged in June 2020 at band B and is valid until June 2030. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Point Red. 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 37 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU2 0BL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Point Red 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.
