Overview

About 15 Kensington Avenue

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

15 Kensington Avenue is a three-bedroom detached house in Penwortham, Preston, Preston (PR1 0BA). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 137 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in December 2013, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Today's modelled estimate of £323,000 is 46.8% above the 2013 sale price.
