About 7 Derwent Street
7 Derwent Street is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE2 0GE). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2016. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since May 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £202,000 sits 489.8% above the 1998 sale of £34,250. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£40/sq ft) was about 66.2% below the postcode norm.
