Local market context
Apartment 10 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE1 4AN). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2019) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. The rating has held steady at B across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. At 77 m² this is the 24th smallest of 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–106 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top.
Today's modelled estimate of £148,000 is 11.9% below the 2016 sale of £168,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£203/sq ft) was about 26.4% below the postcode norm. At 77 m² the property is well over the postcode median (43 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
