About 138 Leighton
138 Leighton is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Orton Malborne, Peterborough, Peterborough (PE2 5QE). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2021) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since August 2010.
