About 60 Highbury Road
60 Highbury Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Luton (LU3 1AE). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since November 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £261,000 sits 832.1% above the 1997 sale of £28,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£31/sq ft) was about 78.3% below the postcode norm. At 84 m² it's 25.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (67 m² median across 47 EPCs).
