About 14 Abbotsway
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
14 Abbotsway is a four-bedroom detached house in Penwortham, Preston, Preston (PR1 0BD). It has a recorded floor area of 235 m² (around 2530 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.
At 235 m² the property is well over the postcode median (154 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £500,000 is 38.9% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£142/sq ft) was about 34.5% below the postcode norm. Last changed hands 10 years ago, in February 2017.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 14 Abbotsway is modelled from its 235 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR1 0BD. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 14 Abbotsway. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 14 Abbotsway was lodged in May 2016 at band E and expired in May 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 14 Abbotsway. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR1 0BD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 14 Abbotsway is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
