About 192a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
192a is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE2 0DT). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 729 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 68 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 19 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 59–184 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 19 units on file. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in September 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 68 m² it sits well below the postcode median (161 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2005–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 14% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 is 19.5% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£204/sq ft) was about 104.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 192a is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE2 0DT. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 192a. 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 192a was lodged in June 2009 at band D and expired in June 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 192a. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 50 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE2 0DT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 192a is in council tax band A. 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.
