Overview

About 2 Barrowby Close

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

2 Barrowby Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU2 9JL). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in December 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Today's modelled estimate of £324,000 sits 62% above the 2015 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£262/sq ft) was about 126.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in October 2015.
