About 1a

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

1a is an end-of-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 0EP). It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 506 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 47 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 33 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 38–104 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in May 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 23 years, with the last transfer in August 2003. At 47 m² it sits well below the postcode median (77 m² across 32 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1999–2003, sale prices on this property compounded at 35.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £136,000 is 40.9% above the 2003 sale price.
