Overview

About 7 Willow Walk

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

7 Willow Walk is a semi-detached house in Syston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 1GF). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 939 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from October 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 87 m² the property is well over the postcode median (67 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £249,000 sits 424.8% above the 1996 sale of £47,450. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£51/sq ft) was about 64.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 7 Willow Walk is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE7 1GF. 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 7 Willow Walk. 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 7 Willow Walk was lodged in October 2010 at band D and expired in October 2020, 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 7 Willow Walk. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE7 1GF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
7 Willow Walk 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.
