About 13 Derby Road
13 Derby Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Luton (LU4 0DH). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1167 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 60), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
