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.

Overview

About 18 East Street

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

18 East Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lilley, Luton, Luton (LU2 8LW). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and attached land beyond the plot.

9 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. An active application for tree works is awaiting a decision. At 98 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

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 18 East Street is modelled from its 98 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LU2 8LW. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 18 East Street. 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 18 East Street was lodged in February 2015 at band F and expired in February 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 9 applications are matched to 18 East Street. 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 3 schools and 15 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU2 8LW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
18 East Street is in council tax band D. 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.
