Thanks for this post. Being American, I didn't even realize that "listed building" meant "historical building." I thought it referred to the building being listed for sale.

We'd likely call it a "registered building"--referring to a registry of historical buildings--as "listing" a building is putting it up for sale and advertising on the MLS, the Multiple Listing Service.
