Overview

About Flat 4

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

Flat 4 is a one-bedroom detached house in Dunstable (LU6 3RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 36 m² (around 388 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 36 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (36–73 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (61 versus a worst of 44). The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Today's modelled estimate of £147,000 is 14% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£333/sq ft) was about 38.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 36 m² it's 22.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (47 m² median across 70 EPCs). Sold February 2021 for £129,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
