About 16 Equity Road
16 Equity Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE3 0AS). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2018) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump.
Held since October 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. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 36.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £207,000 is 36.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£136/sq ft) was about 23.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
