Overview

About 3 Briar Close

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

3 Briar Close is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU2 8EA). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since September 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. At 92 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £310,000 sits 87.9% above the 2007 sale of £165,000.
