Overview

About 1a

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

1a is a two-bedroom detached house in Great Preston, Leeds, Leeds (LS26 8BP). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Today's modelled estimate of £253,000 sits 61.1% above the 2014 sale of £157,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£251/sq ft) was about 30.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (88 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On the market in July 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years.
