About 16 The Meadows
16 The Meadows is a four-bedroom detached house in East Goscote, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 3QU). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2023) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).

Held since May 1997 — that's 29 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. At 122 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
