16 Fernheath, Luton, LU3 4DG
About 16 Fernheath
16 Fernheath is a four-bedroom detached house in Luton (LU3 4DG). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2020) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 131 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £528,000 sits 62.5% above the 2007 sale of £325,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
