15a, Reginald Street, Luton, LU2 7QZ

15a is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU2 7QZ). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1082 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 20 years, with the last transfer in January 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 101 m² the property is well over the postcode median (53 m² across 99 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £300,000 sits 91.1% above the 2007 sale of £157,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£145/sq ft) was about 15.8% below the postcode norm.
