About Flat 2

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

Flat 2 is a property in Hamilton, Leicester, Leicester (LE5 1BH). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 661 sq ft) and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2009) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 61 m² this is the 4th smallest of 7 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 45–65 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top.

It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 61 m² it's 26.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (84 m² median across 68 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 81% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 is 44.3% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 20.6% below the postcode norm.
