About 49 Filmer Road
49 Filmer Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU4 9BY). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
Today's modelled estimate of £298,000 sits 75.3% above the 2012 sale of £170,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£282/sq ft) was about 43.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 56 m² it's 22.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (73 m² median across 10 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in October 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
