Overview

About 25 Barbara Avenue

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

25 Barbara Avenue is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 2AD). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 sits 127.3% above the 2010 sale of £110,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£112/sq ft) was about 22.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
