About 3 Clarefield Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Clarefield Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Leicester (LE3 6FB). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since August 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £305,000 sits 81% above the 2012 sale of £168,500.

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 3 Clarefield Road is modelled from its 130 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE3 6FB. 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 3 Clarefield 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 3 Clarefield Road was lodged in August 2014 at band D and expired in August 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 5 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 3 Clarefield 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 37 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE3 6FB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Clarefield Road 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.
