About 15 Abbots Close
15 Abbots Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Leicester (LE5 1EH). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1063 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2009) 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 June 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
