Overview

About 38 Latimer Road

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

38 Latimer Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Cropston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 7GN). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1771 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 165 m² the property is well over the postcode median (124 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Across 1995–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £471,000 sits 63.8% above the 2010 sale of £287,500. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 38 Latimer Road is modelled from its 165 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE7 7GN. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 38 Latimer Road. 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 38 Latimer Road was lodged in March 2010 at band E and expired in March 2020, 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. 1 application is matched to 38 Latimer Road. 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 7GN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
38 Latimer Road 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.
