2 Bankside, Leicester, LE5 1LA
About 2 Bankside
2 Bankside is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 1LA). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 644 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
It hasn't traded since February 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. Today's modelled estimate of £172,000 sits 115% above the 2009 sale of £80,000. At 60 m² it's 26.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (81 m² median across 5 EPCs).
