9 Wigston Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Blaby, Leicester, Leicester (LE8 4FU). It has a recorded floor area of 34 m² (around 366 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good.
