Overview

About 8 Albert Street

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

8 Albert Street is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Syston, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 2JA). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 831 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £212,000 sits 430% above the 1998 sale of £40,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£48/sq ft) was about 62.8% below the postcode norm.
