About 21 Fairfield Street
21 Fairfield Street is a mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 5BH). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2020) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).
It hasn't traded since October 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area.
