Overview

About 14 Cropston Road

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

14 Cropston Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Cropston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 7GE). It has a recorded floor area of 198 m² (around 2131 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (June 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 198 m² the property is well over the postcode median (113 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 4 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2004–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £833,000 is 18.2% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£331/sq ft) was about 78% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
