Overview

About 2 Briar Walk

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

2 Briar Walk is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Oadby, Leicester, Leicester (LE2 5UE). It has a recorded floor area of 119 m² (around 1281 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot.

Today's modelled estimate of £329,000 sits 95.8% above the 2012 sale of £168,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 28% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in October 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
