Overview

About 27 Dronfield Street

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

27 Dronfield Street is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 5AU). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2008–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -5.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £243,000 sits 82.7% above the 2009 sale of £133,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
