About 72 Shaftesbury Avenue

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

72 Shaftesbury Avenue is a semi-detached house in Leeds (LS8 1DS). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since October 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 72 Shaftesbury Avenue is modelled from its 160 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LS8 1DS. 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 72 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 72 Shaftesbury Avenue was lodged in September 2024 at band E and is valid until September 2034. 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 72 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 1DS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
72 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.
