Overview

About Wilmead

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

Wilmead is a four-bedroom detached house in Shawell, Lutterworth, Lutterworth (LE17 6AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 153 m² (around 1647 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2020) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in August 2016 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. Other recorded features include notable views and attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension, an annexe and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Sold June 2020 for £390,000.
