About 1 Ashover Road

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

1 Ashover Road is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 5HB). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1421 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 132 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). Across 1997–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £233,000 sits 90.2% above the 2012 sale of £122,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 93% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 14 years ago, in April 2012.
