Overview

About 10 Cobbett Road

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

10 Cobbett Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Braunstone, Leicester, Leicester (LE3 3RB). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1999–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £339,000 sits 66.6% above the 2014 sale of £203,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£187/sq ft) was about 38.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

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 10 Cobbett Road is modelled from its 101 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE3 3RB. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 10 Cobbett Road. 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 Cobbett Road was lodged in January 2015 at band E and expired in January 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 10 Cobbett Road. 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 18 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE3 3RB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
10 Cobbett Road 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.
