Overview

About 5 Burges Close

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

5 Burges Close is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Dunstable (LU6 3EU). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
