Overview

About 3 Arden Avenue

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

3 Arden Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Leicester (LE3 2SG). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump.
