Overview

About 13 Badger Drive

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

13 Badger Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Whetstone, Leicester, Leicester (LE8 6ZW). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in September 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Today's modelled estimate of £382,000 sits 66.1% above the 2015 sale of £230,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£198/sq ft) was about 34.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 108 m² it's 21.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (89 m² median across 4 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). Last sold in February 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
