How the estimate is made

About 20 Brook Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20 Brook Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 2HD). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 71 m² it's 29.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (55 m² median across 17 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). On the market in November 2016 and unlisted since — roughly 10 years.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 20 Brook Road is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 2HD. 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 20 Brook 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 20 Brook Road was lodged in May 2016 at band C and expired in May 2026, 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. 2 applications are matched to 20 Brook 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 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE5 2HD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 20 Brook Road 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.
