About 9 Main Street

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

9 Main Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Barkby, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 3QG). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (January 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 3-band jump.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in October 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £199,000 sits 53.1% above the 2009 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£246/sq ft) was about 30.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 49 m² it sits well below the postcode median (135 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2005.
