About 5 Lynwood Avenue

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

5 Lynwood Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU2 7TY). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
