About 49 Bridge Road
49 Bridge Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 3LB). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2019) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
