17 Bushmead Road, Luton, LU2 7EU

17 Bushmead Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU2 7EU). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 78 m² it sits well below the postcode median (115 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £424,000 is 28.5% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£393/sq ft) was about 80.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
