About 10 Buckingham Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
10 Buckingham Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Leicester (LE2 8PY). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 105), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 79 m² the property is well over the postcode median (53 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £301,000 sits 58.4% above the 2015 sale of £190,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 21.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in December 2015.

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 10 Buckingham Drive is modelled from its 79 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE2 8PY. 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 10 Buckingham 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 10 Buckingham Drive was lodged in November 2015 at band D and expired in November 2025, 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. 1 application is matched to 10 Buckingham 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 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE2 8PY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 10 Buckingham Drive is in council tax band D. 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.
