Overview

About 16 Alvaston Road

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

16 Alvaston Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Leicester (LE3 2EA). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1442 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £354,000 sits 63.9% above the 2016 sale of £216,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in September 2016 and unlisted since — roughly 10 years.
