18 Malthouse Green, Luton, LU2 8SN

18 Malthouse Green is a four-bedroom detached house in Luton (LU2 8SN). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2016) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86).

It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 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. At 101 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £485,000 sits 63% above the 2007 sale of £297,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£274/sq ft) was about 36.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
