About 39 Bracklesham Gardens

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

39 Bracklesham Gardens is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU2 8QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2015) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in May 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in September 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
