22a, Chapel Street, Blaby, Leicester, LE8 4GB

22a is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Blaby, Leicester, Leicester (LE8 4GB). It has a recorded floor area of 158 m² (around 1701 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 158 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £399,000 sits 195.6% above the 1999 sale of £135,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£79/sq ft) was about 61.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2021. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
