Overview

About 14 Gregories Close

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

14 Gregories Close is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU3 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 40 m² this is the 4th smallest of 20 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 38–187 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom.

Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). Main heating runs on electricity.

Across 2000–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £129,000 sits 63.3% above the 2011 sale of £79,000. 6 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 1 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 84% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 14 Gregories Close is modelled from its 40 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LU3 1DL. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 14 Gregories Close. 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 14 Gregories Close was lodged in June 2024 at band E and is valid until June 2034. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to 14 Gregories Close. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 38 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU3 1DL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
14 Gregories Close is in council tax band A. 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.
