About 131 Fosse Road South
131 Fosse Road South is an end-of-terrace house in Leicester (LE3 0FW). It has a recorded floor area of 23 m² (around 248 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 23 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (23–129 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 18 units on file. The latest certificate (May 2021) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £136,000 is 56.8% below the 2014 sale of £315,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.
