About Flat 2

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Flat 2 is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE2 3EA). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 344 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2024) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 32 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 28–161 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 9 units on file.

Today's modelled estimate of £203,000 is 36.6% below the 2016 sale of £320,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£929/sq ft) was about 374.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 32 m² it sits well below the postcode median (56 m² across 52 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 10 years ago, in February 2016.
