Overview

About 5 Chalkdown

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

5 Chalkdown is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU2 7FH). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£322/sq ft) was about 44.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in January 2016, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
