About 7 Melbourne Street
7 Melbourne Street is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE2 0AR). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in January 2000. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 101 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £235,000 sits 410.9% above the 2000 sale of £46,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£42/sq ft) was about 53.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
