About 8 Saxon Street
8 Saxon Street is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE3 0BL). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2018) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79).
It hasn't traded since May 2000, a hold of 26 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.
