About 7 Sykefield Avenue
7 Sykefield Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE3 0LA). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2021) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2021 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 55 m² this is the 18th smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 27–207 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 29 units on file.
Today's modelled estimate of £130,000 is 45.3% below the 2022 sale of £237,500, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.
