About 5 Bakewell Close
5 Bakewell Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU4 0DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 996 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since December 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 sits 91.6% above the 2009 sale of £166,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£167/sq ft) was about 20.3% below the postcode norm.
