About 1 Byfield Close
1 Byfield Close is a semi-detached house in Luton (LU4 0BX). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £345,000 sits 477.4% above the 1997 sale of £59,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£52/sq ft) was about 73.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 107 m² it's 23.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (87 m² median across 10 EPCs).
