17 Evergreen Way, Luton, LU3 4AL
About 17 Evergreen Way
17 Evergreen Way is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU3 4AL). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2023) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since September 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 £257,000 sits 65.8% above the 2007 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£257/sq ft) was about 23% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 56 m² it sits well below the postcode median (80 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
