Overview

About 8 Borrough Avenue

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

8 Borrough Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Leeds (LS8 1LR). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Period features are noted in the property record.

Across 2007–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £373,000 sits 68% above the 2015 sale of £222,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 33.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 96 m² it's 22.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (79 m² median across 16 EPCs). Last sold in November 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

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 8 Borrough Avenue is modelled from its 96 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LS8 1LR. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 8 Borrough 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 8 Borrough Avenue was lodged in April 2014 at band D and expired in April 2024, 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. 2 applications are matched to 8 Borrough 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 40 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LS8 1LR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Borrough Avenue is in council tax band C. 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.
