About 11 Blackfriars Road
11 Blackfriars Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Syston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 2DS). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2012 onwards and council tax band C. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (April 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
