About 8 Baylam Dell
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

At 33 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 25–65 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top.

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 8 Baylam Dell is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LU2 9ST. 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 8 Baylam Dell. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 8 Baylam Dell. 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 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU2 9ST, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Baylam Dell is in council tax band A. 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.
