Overview

About 5 Elm Tree Gardens

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

5 Elm Tree Gardens is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Leicester (LE2 3NG). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2019) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85).

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £393,000 sits 57.2% above the 2009 sale of £249,995.
