Overview

About 2 Causeway Lane

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

It has a recorded floor area of 224 m² (around 2411 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 3-band jump.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 10 planning records sit against the property, 7 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, solar panel installation, new windows and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. On the market in July 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1997–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.7% per year.

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 2 Causeway Lane is modelled from its 224 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE7 7GD. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 2 Causeway Lane. 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 2 Causeway Lane was lodged in April 2012 at band F and expired in April 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. 10 applications are matched to 2 Causeway Lane. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE7 7GD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Causeway Lane 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.
