Overview

About 26 Gaddesby Lane

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

26 Gaddesby Lane is a five-bedroom detached house in Rearsby, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 4YJ). It has a recorded floor area of 298 m² (around 3208 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2017) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in November 2015 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). Main heating runs on electricity. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 298 m² the property is well over the postcode median (228 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £865,000 sits 51.8% above the 2016 sale of £570,000. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in February 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
