Overview

About 1 Astra Court

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

1 Astra Court is a semi-detached house in Luton (LU2 7SG). It has a recorded floor area of 25 m² (around 269 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 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 15% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £104,000 is 30.8% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£295/sq ft) was about 27.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
