About 24 Malzeard Road
24 Malzeard Road is a semi-detached house in Luton (LU3 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1024 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60).

Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £353,000 sits 72.2% above the 2009 sale of £205,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£200/sq ft) was about 19.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs).
