About 1a
1a is a four-bedroom detached house in Thrussington, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 4UA). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2019) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in December 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include notable views and attached land beyond the plot. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since April 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. At 108 m² it sits well below the postcode median (161 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006.
