About 72 Filmer Road
72 Filmer Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU4 9BY). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (May 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 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 £304,000 sits 117.1% above the 2009 sale of £140,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£171/sq ft) was about 19.3% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 76 m² it's 15.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (66 m² median across 10 EPCs).
