About Apartment 17
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Apartment 17 is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Leicester (LE1 6AT). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 517 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2020) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. Main heating runs on electricity. At 48 m² this is the 4th smallest of 21 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–87 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom.
Today's modelled estimate of £119,000 is 11.8% below the 2007 sale of £134,950, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£261/sq ft) was about 39.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since December 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 Apartment 17 is modelled from its 48 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE1 6AT. 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 Apartment 17. 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 Apartment 17 was lodged in September 2020 at band D and is valid until September 2030. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Apartment 17. 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 57 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE1 6AT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Apartment 17 is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
