About 15 Twycross Street
15 Twycross Street is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE2 0DU). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since March 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £190,000 sits 104.3% above the 2007 sale of £93,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£112/sq ft) was about 87.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
