Overview

About 3 Abbots Close

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

3 Abbots Close is a detached house in Leicester (LE5 1EH). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £289,000 sits 331.7% above the 1997 sale of £66,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£68/sq ft) was about 59.2% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs).
