About 121 Kirby Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
121 Kirby Road is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE3 6BE). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 68 m² this is the 4th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 29–124 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (October 2022) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump.
Today's modelled estimate of £163,000 is 14.2% below the 2026 sale of £190,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£260/sq ft) was about 97.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. A recent sale: £190,000 in May 2026. At 68 m² it sits well below the postcode median (103 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs).
