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 £162,000 is 29.6% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£283/sq ft) was about 89.9% 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).

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 135a is modelled from its 41 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LU2 0EW. 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 135a. 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 135a was lodged in September 2013 at band C and expired in September 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 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 135a. 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 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU2 0EW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
135a 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.
