Overview

About 5 Halford Close

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

5 Halford Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Great Glen, Leicester, Leicester (LE8 9FW). It has a recorded floor area of 152 m² (around 1636 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in January 2011 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Average.
