Overview

About 4 Balmoral Drive

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

4 Balmoral Drive is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE3 3AD). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1090 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £213,000 sits 113.1% above the 2009 sale of £99,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£92/sq ft) was about 39.1% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2003.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4 Balmoral Drive is modelled from its 101 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE3 3AD. 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 4 Balmoral 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 4 Balmoral Drive was lodged in May 2009 at band E and expired in May 2019, 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 4 Balmoral 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE3 3AD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4 Balmoral Drive is in council tax band A. 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.
