Overview

About 26 Brookside

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

26 Brookside is a two-bedroom detached house in Rearsby, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 4YB). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (93 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £297,000 is 48.5% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£300/sq ft) was about 85.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
