Overview

About 188 High Street North

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

188 High Street North is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Dunstable (LU6 1AT). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Most recent transfer: June 2022 at £230,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£301/sq ft) was about 98.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
