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.
