About 5 Hillcroft Road
5 Hillcroft Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Leicester (LE5 5DX). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since November 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. At 135 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £274,000 sits 328.1% above the 2001 sale of £64,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£44/sq ft) was about 73% below the postcode norm.
