About 5 Kennington Road
5 Kennington Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU3 1BH). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2019) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump.
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in July 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 sits 212.5% above the 2008 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 17.8% below the postcode norm. At 80 m² it's 29.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (113 m² median across 12 EPCs).
