About 15 East Street
15 East Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lilley, Luton, Luton (LU2 8LW). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2023) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 105), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since November 2008, a hold of 18 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. Today's modelled estimate of £381,000 sits 85.9% above the 2008 sale of £205,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£227/sq ft) was about 17.5% below the postcode norm. At 84 m² it's 27.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (66 m² median across 19 EPCs).
