About 29a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since February 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor.

Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 is 83% below the 2019 sale of £900,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying.

At 35 m² it sits well below the postcode median (71 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Sold June 2019 for £900,000.

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 29a is modelled from its 35 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 0JB. 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 29a. 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 29a was lodged in December 2025 at band D and is valid until December 2035. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 29a. 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 54 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE5 0JB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
