About 8 Connaught Road

8 Connaught Road is a mid-terrace house in Luton (LU4 8EP). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.
