16 Greenriggs, Luton, LU2 9TQ

16 Greenriggs is a four-bedroom detached house in Luton (LU2 9TQ). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1851 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (January 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
