About Flat 3
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 3 is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE1 3AL). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 94 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (94–94 m²). On EPC score it ranks last in the building (74 versus a best of 76).

Today's modelled estimate of £154,000 is 48.8% below the 2022 sale of £301,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. At 94 m² the property is well over the postcode median (27 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Most recent transfer: January 2022 at £301,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Flat 3 is modelled from its 94 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE1 3AL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Flat 3. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Flat 3 was lodged in October 2020 at band C and is valid until October 2030. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 3. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 59 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE1 3AL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
