Overview

About 12 Bowland Crescent

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

12 Bowland Crescent is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Dunstable (LU6 3QD). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1024 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from March 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
