2a, Berridge Drive, Oadby, Leicester, LE2 5RA
About 2a
2a is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Oadby, Leicester, Leicester (LE2 5RA). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since January 2008 — that's 19 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £456,000 sits 68.9% above the 2008 sale of £270,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£314/sq ft) was about 91% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2018. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
