Overview

About 3 Cavendish Road

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

3 Cavendish Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU3 1JG). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2017) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £275,000 sits 97.8% above the 2007 sale of £139,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£156/sq ft) was about 16.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs).
