1 Ashcroft Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU2 9AU). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2023) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £398,000 sits 115.1% above the 2009 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£172/sq ft) was about 16.9% below the postcode norm. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 82% of similar EPCs).
