About 14 Marlborough Road

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

14 Marlborough Road is a semi-detached house in Luton (LU3 1EF). It has a recorded floor area of 232 m² (around 2497 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a C (score 73). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86).

Today's modelled estimate of £466,000 sits 149.2% above the 2002 sale of £187,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 50.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
