18a, Havelock Rise, Luton, LU2 7PS
About 18a
18a is a four-bedroom detached house in Luton (LU2 7PS). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1083 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 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. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £408,000 sits 75.5% above the 2007 sale of £232,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 25.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 101 m² it sits well below the postcode median (189 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
