Overview

About 2 High Town Road

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

2 High Town Road is an end-of-terrace house in Luton (LU2 0DD). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (November 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).

Today's modelled estimate of £239,000 is 46.9% below the 2020 sale of £450,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.

At 66 m² the property is well over the postcode median (41 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 11 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 5 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Sold February 2020 for £450,000.
