Overview

About Avenue House

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

Avenue House is a six-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Leicester (LE2 0JF). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1851 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2018) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump.

Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 172 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -5.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £290,000 sits 66.7% above the 2009 sale of £174,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£94/sq ft) was about 31% below the postcode norm.
