About 31 Bakewell Street
31 Bakewell Street is an end-of-terrace house in Leicester (LE2 0FF). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2017) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).
It hasn't traded since September 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.
