Overview

About 1 Blaydon Road

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

1 Blaydon Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU2 0RP). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 101), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 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. At 117 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 sits 67% above the 2007 sale of £191,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 27.4% below the postcode norm.
