Overview

About 135a

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

135a is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU2 0EW). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 41 m² this is the 9th smallest of 36 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–121 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in March 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £157,000 is 25.6% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£283/sq ft) was about 88.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 41 m² it's 16.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (49 m² median across 35 EPCs).
