Overview

About 8 Long Lane

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

8 Long Lane is a detached house in Billesdon, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 9AL). It has a recorded floor area of 214 m² (around 2303 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 214 m² the property is well over the postcode median (123 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 18 planning records sit against the property, 16 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include tree works and solar panel installation, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.

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 8 Long Lane is modelled from its 214 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE7 9AL. 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 8 Long 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 8 Long Lane was lodged in July 2013 at band E and expired in July 2023, 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. 18 applications are matched to 8 Long 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 1 school and 6 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE7 9AL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Long 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.
