Overview

About 42 Gledhow Avenue

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

42 Gledhow Avenue is a detached house in Leeds (LS8 1NU). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1485 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).

It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £550,000 sits 85.2% above the 2007 sale of £297,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£200/sq ft) was about 32.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 138 m² it's 15.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (163 m² median across 15 EPCs).
