About 20 Bolsover Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20 Bolsover Street is a semi-detached house in Leicester (LE5 4FA). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2016. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £294,000 sits 553.3% above the 1995 sale of £45,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£36/sq ft) was about 78% below the postcode norm. At 116 m² it's 20.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (96 m² median across 16 EPCs).

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 Bolsover Street is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 4FA. 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 Bolsover Street. 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 Bolsover Street was lodged in May 2016 at band E 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 20 Bolsover Street. 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.

- Council tax band
- 20 Bolsover Street 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.
