About 21 Brackendale Grove
21 Brackendale Grove is a mid-terrace house in Luton (LU3 2LT). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
