About 1 Aldhous Close
1 Aldhous Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU3 2LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£192/sq ft) was about 38.2% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused.
