Overview

About 162 Bradley Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

162 Bradley Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU4 0AR). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2024) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Across 1998–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £332,000 sits 112.8% above the 2013 sale of £156,000. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 78% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 13 years ago, in February 2013. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2003.
