About 3 School Street

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

3 School Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Syston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 1HN). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since September 2015. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.

At 70 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
