About 16 Cromford Street
16 Cromford Street is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE2 0FW). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2021) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
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. Today's modelled estimate of £241,000 sits 75.3% above the 2008 sale of £137,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£158/sq ft) was about 228.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
