20 Chapel Lane is a two-bedroom detached house in Gaddesby, Leicester, Leicester (LE7 4WB). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump.
