About 5 Blake Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Blake Close is a detached house in Barrow Upon Soar, Loughborough, Loughborough (LE12 8FS). It has a recorded floor area of 364 m² (around 3918 sq ft) and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2013) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area.
