About 31 Beckham Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
31 Beckham Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Luton (LU2 7BX). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility.
2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2016–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£456/sq ft) was about 46% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 31 Beckham Close is modelled from its 107 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LU2 7BX. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 31 Beckham Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.

- Council tax band
- 31 Beckham Close is in council tax band E. 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.
