Overview

About 8 St Marys Avenue

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

8 St Marys Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Humberstone, Leicester, Leicester (LE5 1JA). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67). The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 St Marys Avenue is modelled from its 82 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 1JA. 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 8 St Marys Avenue. 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 8 St Marys Avenue was lodged in September 2011 at band E and expired in September 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 8 St Marys Avenue. 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 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE5 1JA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 St Marys Avenue is in council tax band A. 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.
