Overview

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 (52 m² across 35 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 £315,000 sits 65.8% above the 2015 sale of £190,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 25.4% 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 10 years ago, in December 2015.
