Overview

About 4 Blakenhall Road

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

4 Blakenhall Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Leicester (LE5 4LD). It has a recorded floor area of 180 m² (around 1938 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2024) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in July 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83).

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £375,000 sits 149.1% above the 2007 sale of £150,555. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
