17 Henton Road, Leicester, LE3 6AY
About 17 Henton Road
17 Henton Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE3 6AY). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 108 m² the property is well over the postcode median (77 m² across 34 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £213,000 sits 70.4% above the 2009 sale of £125,000.
