About 19 Malzeard Road
19 Malzeard Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Luton (LU3 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 162 m² (around 1744 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump.
