About 43 Drumcliff Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
43 Drumcliff Road is a semi-detached house in Leicester (LE5 2LH). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2014) returns a high B (score 89), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in October 2013 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 94). The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2006–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £208,000 is 15.1% below the 2022 sale of £245,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£262/sq ft) was about 123.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Last sale on file: £245,000 in September 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 43 Drumcliff Road is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 2LH. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 43 Drumcliff 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 43 Drumcliff Road was lodged in March 2014 at band B and expired in March 2024, 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 43 Drumcliff 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE5 2LH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 43 Drumcliff 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.
