Overview

About 26 Royds Lane

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

26 Royds Lane is a detached house in Rothwell, Leeds, Leeds (LS26 0BH). It has a recorded floor area of 304 m² (around 3271 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in September 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 304 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £601,000 sits 76.8% above the 2009 sale of £340,000.

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 26 Royds Lane is modelled from its 304 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LS26 0BH. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 26 Royds Lane. 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 26 Royds Lane was lodged in January 2009 at band E and expired in January 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 26 Royds Lane. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 11 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LS26 0BH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
26 Royds Lane is in council tax band F. 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.
