Overview

About 4 Gaul Street

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

4 Gaul Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE3 0AU). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2022) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.

Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 sits 54.8% above the 2009 sale of £115,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 29.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 76 m² it's 15.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 42 EPCs).
