About 4 Carol Close
4 Carol Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Luton (LU3 1UZ). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1550 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since April 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 1996–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £358,000 sits 52.3% above the 2016 sale of £235,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 21.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Last sold in May 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
