How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 Coplow Avenue is modelled from its 265 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 5WA. 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.

About 8 Coplow Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Coplow Avenue is a detached house in Leicester (LE5 5WA). It has a recorded floor area of 265 m² (around 2852 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 265 m² the property is well over the postcode median (111 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–1999, sale prices on this property compounded at 146% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £563,000 sits 168.1% above the 1999 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£74/sq ft) was about 55.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 8 Coplow Avenue is modelled from its 265 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 5WA. 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 8 Coplow 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 8 Coplow Avenue was lodged in June 2016 at band D and expired in June 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 8 Coplow 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 5WA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Coplow Avenue is in council tax band F. 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.
