Overview

About 31 Shaftesbury Avenue

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

31 Shaftesbury Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Leeds (LS8 1DR). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1550 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. At 144 m² this is the 8th smallest of 21 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 80–274 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 21 units on file. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1998–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £369,000 is 13.5% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£210/sq ft) was about 16.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 144 m² it's 26.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (197 m² median across 20 EPCs). Sold August 2021 for £325,000.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 31 Shaftesbury Avenue is modelled from its 144 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LS8 1DR. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 31 Shaftesbury Avenue. 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 31 Shaftesbury Avenue was lodged in May 2012 at band D and expired in May 2022, 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 31 Shaftesbury Avenue. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LS8 1DR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
31 Shaftesbury Avenue is in council tax band D. 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.
