About 1 Bilberry Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Bilberry Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Leicester (LE3 2JA). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 116 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £268,000 sits 280.1% above the 1999 sale of £70,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£56/sq ft) was about 70% below the postcode norm.

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 1 Bilberry Close is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE3 2JA. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 1 Bilberry 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 1 Bilberry Close was lodged in July 2014 at band C and expired in July 2024, 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 1 Bilberry 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE3 2JA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Bilberry 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.
