Overview

About 6 Caudle Close

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

6 Caudle Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Cropston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 7GF). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1690 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2022) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in September 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 105), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

It hasn't traded since June 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 157 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £507,000 sits 130.5% above the 2010 sale of £220,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£130/sq ft) was about 37.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 6 Caudle Close is modelled from its 157 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE7 7GF. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 6 Caudle Close. 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 6 Caudle Close was lodged in November 2022 at band C and is valid until November 2032. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 6 Caudle Close. 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 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE7 7GF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
6 Caudle Close is in council tax band E. 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.
