Overview

About 1 Grange Close

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

1 Grange Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Great Glen, Leicester, Leicester (LE8 9GD). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility.
