Overview

About 14 Chestnut Drive

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

14 Chestnut Drive is a five-bedroom detached house in Oadby, Leicester, Leicester (LE2 4QX). It has a recorded floor area of 361 m² (around 3886 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band H. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in August 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 361 m² the property is well over the postcode median (215 m² across 44 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,440,000 sits 94.6% above the 2008 sale of £740,000.

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 14 Chestnut Drive is modelled from its 361 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE2 4QX. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 14 Chestnut Drive. 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 14 Chestnut Drive was lodged in June 2025 at band E and is valid until June 2035. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 14 Chestnut Drive. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE2 4QX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
14 Chestnut Drive is in council tax band H. 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.
