Overview

About 8 Hawkfields

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

8 Hawkfields is a four-bedroom detached house in Luton (LU2 7NN). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 961 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £408,000 sits 81.3% above the 2009 sale of £225,000. At 89 m² it's 25.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (71 m² median across 26 EPCs).
