About 5 Ash Tree Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Ash Tree Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Oadby, Leicester, Leicester (LE2 5TA). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 792 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2008) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67).

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 5 Ash Tree Close is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE2 5TA. 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 5 Ash Tree 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 5 Ash Tree Close was lodged in September 2008 at band E and expired in September 2018, 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. None is matched to 5 Ash Tree 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 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE2 5TA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Ash Tree Close is in council tax band C. 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.
