About 1 Balmoral Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Balmoral Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Leicester (LE2 3PZ). It has a recorded floor area of 186 m² (around 2002 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. At 186 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2001, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £789,000 sits 146.6% above the 2001 sale of £320,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£160/sq ft) was about 33.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2023. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.

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 1 Balmoral Close is modelled from its 186 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE2 3PZ. 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 1 Balmoral Close. 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 1 Balmoral Close was lodged in January 2013 at band D and expired in January 2023, 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. 1 application is matched to 1 Balmoral Close. 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 3PZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Balmoral Close is in council tax band G. 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.
