Overview

About 26 Sulgrave Road

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

26 Sulgrave Road is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 0LA). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2023) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor.

Across 2000–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £173,000 sits 73% above the 2021 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£126/sq ft) was about 43.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Sold June 2021 for £100,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
