About 30a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
30a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Luton (LU4 9RP). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft). The latest certificate (March 2016) returns a high B (score 88), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 74 m² it's 27.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (58 m² median across 39 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £339,000 is 43% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£298/sq ft) was about 150.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in September 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 30a is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LU4 9RP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 30a. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 30a was lodged in March 2016 at band B and expired in March 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 30a. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 41 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LU4 9RP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
