Overview

About 20 Lancaster Road

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

20 Lancaster Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE1 6YT). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1442 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2023) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since October 2008, a hold of 18 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. At 134 m² the property is well over the postcode median (39 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £304,000 is 33.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£158/sq ft) was about 77.3% below the postcode norm.
