About 15 Bodnant Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Bodnant Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Leicester (LE5 5RB). It has a recorded floor area of 136 m² (around 1464 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since October 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
It hasn't traded since April 2005, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. At 136 m² the property is well over the postcode median (103 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £288,000 sits 85.8% above the 2005 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£106/sq ft) was about 28.1% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2005.

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 15 Bodnant Avenue is modelled from its 136 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 5RB. 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 15 Bodnant Avenue. 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 15 Bodnant Avenue was lodged in July 2016 at band E and expired in July 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 15 Bodnant Avenue. 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 44 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE5 5RB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 15 Bodnant Avenue is in council tax band C. 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.
