Overview

About 52 Bakewell Street

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

52 Bakewell Street is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE2 0FE). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1690 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (October 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in November 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 157 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 sits 423.2% above the 1996 sale of £40,900. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£24/sq ft) was about 75.3% below the postcode norm.
