Overview

About 21 Chatsworth Road

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

21 Chatsworth Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU4 8AS). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in December 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Today's modelled estimate of £270,000 sits 86.2% above the 2014 sale of £145,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£137/sq ft) was about 27.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in April 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2018.
