Overview

About 1 Blackthorn Lane

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

1 Blackthorn Lane is a detached house in Oadby, Leicester, Leicester (LE2 4FA). It has a recorded floor area of 333 m² (around 3580 sq ft) and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since March 2011. Between certificates, main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 333 m² the property is well over the postcode median (213 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,076,000 sits 175.5% above the 2008 sale of £390,600. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£109/sq ft) was about 57.7% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2010.
