Overview

About 26 Fair Oak Drive

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

26 Fair Oak Drive is a two-bedroom property in Luton (LU2 7TQ). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 511 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 48 m² this is the 27th smallest of 48 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–78 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 48 units on file. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
