Overview

About 71 Cranesbill Road

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

71 Cranesbill Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hamilton, Leicester, Leicester (LE5 1TA). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2011. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (101 m² across 33 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1997–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£387/sq ft) was about 131.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold April 2022 for £275,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 71 Cranesbill Road is modelled from its 66 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 1TA. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 71 Cranesbill Road. 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 71 Cranesbill Road was lodged in May 2016 at band D and expired in May 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 71 Cranesbill Road. 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 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE5 1TA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
71 Cranesbill Road is in council tax band B. 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.
