Overview

About 4 Glen View

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

4 Glen View is an end-of-terrace house in Blaby, Leicester, Leicester (LE8 4FU). It has a recorded floor area of 28 m² (around 301 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. At 28 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (28–38 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (73 versus a worst of 54). The latest certificate (July 2023) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.

Held since July 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 28 m² it sits well below the postcode median (50 m² across 44 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006.

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 4 Glen View is modelled from its 28 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE8 4FU. 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 4 Glen View. 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 4 Glen View was lodged in July 2023 at band C and is valid until July 2033. 2 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 4 Glen View. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE8 4FU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4 Glen View is in council tax band A. 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.
