Overview

About 1 Nightingale Close

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

1 Nightingale Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU2 8EZ). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in July 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £344,000 sits 108.5% above the 2009 sale of £165,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
