About 6 Bancroft Road
6 Bancroft Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU3 2NB). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2019) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.
Held since October 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. Today's modelled estimate of £296,000 sits 64.4% above the 2007 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£226/sq ft) was about 50.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
