Overview

About 61 Fosse Way

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

61 Fosse Way is a semi-detached house in Syston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 1NF). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2014 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2014–2024, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 is 13.9% below the 2024 sale of £330,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£365/sq ft) was about 127% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold February 2024 for £330,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 84 m² it's 25% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (112 m² median across 23 EPCs).
