Overview

About Flat 5

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

Flat 5 is a semi-detached house in Leicester (LE2 2BP). It has a recorded floor area of 28 m² (around 301 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 28 m² this is the 4th smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 24–44 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (63 versus a worst of 50). The latest certificate (September 2022) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since February 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 sits 572.7% above the 1997 sale of £16,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£55/sq ft) was about 69.7% below the postcode norm. At 28 m² it sits well below the postcode median (48 m² across 30 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Flat 5 is modelled from its 28 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE2 2BP. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Flat 5. 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 Flat 5 was lodged in September 2022 at band D and is valid until September 2032. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 5. 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 43 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE2 2BP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
