Overview

About 48 Main Street

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

48 Main Street is a four-bedroom detached house in Barkby, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 3QG). It has a recorded floor area of 242 m² (around 2605 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory, a self-contained annexe and a loft. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 242 m² the property is well over the postcode median (124 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £718,000 is 22.7% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£225/sq ft) was about 17.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

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 48 Main Street is modelled from its 242 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE7 3QG. 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 48 Main Street. 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 48 Main Street was lodged in May 2012 at band F and expired in May 2022, 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 48 Main Street. 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 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE7 3QG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
48 Main Street is in council tax band G. 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.
