Overview

About 6 Beechings Close

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

6 Beechings Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Countesthorpe, Leicester, Leicester (LE8 5PA). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2012. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £233,000 sits 72.6% above the 2012 sale of £135,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 19.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in September 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years. At 89 m² it's 23.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (117 m² median across 19 EPCs).

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 6 Beechings Close is modelled from its 89 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE8 5PA. 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 Beechings 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 Beechings Close was lodged in June 2012 at band D and expired in June 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 6 Beechings 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE8 5PA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
6 Beechings Close is in council tax band C. 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.
