About 1 Cooks Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Cooks Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Sapcote, Leicester, Leicester (LE9 4FE). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in December 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £254,000 sits 88.1% above the 2009 sale of £135,000. At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (101 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
