About 2 Main Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Main Street is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Thurnby, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 9PN). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 759 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 43). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a basement. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 71 m² it sits well below the postcode median (105 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £471,000 is 34.6% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£461/sq ft) was about 87.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 2 Main Street is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE7 9PN. 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 2 Main Street. 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 2 Main Street was lodged in October 2008 at band F and expired in October 2018, 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. 2 applications are matched to 2 Main Street. 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 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE7 9PN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Main Street 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.
