Overview

About 26 Drovers Way

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

26 Drovers Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Dunstable (LU6 1AN). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2018) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since September 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £330,000 sits 106.3% above the 2009 sale of £160,000.
