Overview

About 8 Crown Close

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

8 Crown Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Great Glen, Leicester, Leicester (LE8 9HE). It has a recorded floor area of 163 m² (around 1755 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2022) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since August 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85).

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 163 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £568,000 is 32.1% above the 2007 sale price.
