Overview

About 129 Main Street

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

129 Main Street is a two-bedroom detached house in Cossington, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 4UW). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2011. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Most recent transfer was October 2025 at £260,000 — fresh data. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2006. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 96 m² it's 29.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (137 m² median across 16 EPCs). Across 1996–2025, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £307,000 is 18.1% above the 2025 sale price.
