Overview

About 23 School Lane

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

23 School Lane is a three-bedroom detached house in Eaton Bray, Dunstable, Dunstable (LU6 2DT). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2019) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in November 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
