Overview

About 20 Causeway Lane

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

20 Causeway Lane is a five-bedroom detached house in Cropston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 7GD). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 443 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in July 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views, a conservatory and a self-contained annexe.

11 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (91 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1998–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £950,000 is 14.5% above the 2011 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,874/sq ft) was about 787.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in November 2011 and unlisted since — roughly 15 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 20 Causeway Lane is modelled from its 41 m² EPC floor area, its 3 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. 3 sales are recorded for 20 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 20 Causeway Lane was lodged in July 2010 at band C and expired in July 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 11 applications are matched to 20 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
20 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.
