Overview

About 9 Birtley Croft

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

9 Birtley Croft is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU2 9TR). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since May 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Most recent transfer: June 2021 at £255,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 2005–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 is 11.4% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£376/sq ft) was about 63.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 9 Birtley Croft is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LU2 9TR. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 9 Birtley Croft. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 9 Birtley Croft was lodged in March 2015 at band D and expired in March 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 9 Birtley Croft. 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 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU2 9TR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
9 Birtley Croft is in council tax band C. 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.
