Overview

About 15 Argyll Avenue

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

15 Argyll Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU3 1EG). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1029 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £297,000 sits 112.1% above the 2007 sale of £140,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£136/sq ft) was about 39.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
