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 £332,000 sits 63.1% 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.
