Flat 5, 1 Moreton Road, Leicester, LE5 0BL
About Flat 5
Flat 5 is a two-bedroom detached house in Leicester (LE5 0BL). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band B. At 62 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 54–71 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (January 2022) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (June 2018); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since June 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £173,000 is 27.3% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£204/sq ft) was about 26.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
