Overview

About 3 Burfield Court

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

3 Burfield Court is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU2 8JY). It has a recorded floor area of 31 m² (around 334 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 31 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 5 units on EPC record in 3 Burfield Court, where floor areas span 30–31 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (59 versus a worst of 40). The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since November 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £117,000 sits 485% above the 1998 sale of £20,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£60/sq ft) was about 69.2% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Burfield Court is modelled from its 31 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LU2 8JY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 3 Burfield Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Burfield Court was lodged in May 2026 at band D and is valid until May 2036. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Burfield Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 18 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU2 8JY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Burfield Court is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
