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.
