Overview

About 18 Broadfield Way

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

18 Broadfield Way is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Countesthorpe, Leicester, Leicester (LE8 5XR). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since July 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since June 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 2003–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £211,000 sits 58.6% above the 2006 sale of £133,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£217/sq ft) was about 25.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 18 Broadfield Way is modelled from its 57 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE8 5XR. 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 18 Broadfield Way. 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 18 Broadfield Way was lodged in March 2014 at band D and expired in March 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 18 Broadfield Way. 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 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE8 5XR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
18 Broadfield Way is in council tax band B. 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.
