About 15 Willow Walk

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

15 Willow Walk is a three-bedroom detached house in Syston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 1GF). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C.

Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £290,000 sits 65.7% above the 2009 sale of £175,000.
