How the estimate is made

The estimate for 51 Kingsway is modelled from its 120 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR1 0ED. 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.

Overview

About 51 Kingsway

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

It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in January 2016 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Period features are noted in the property record.

Across 1997–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £549,000 sits 68.9% above the 2016 sale of £325,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£252/sq ft) was about 39.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006.

On the market in October 2016 and unlisted since — roughly 10 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 51 Kingsway is modelled from its 120 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR1 0ED. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 51 Kingsway. 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 51 Kingsway was lodged in May 2026 at band C and is valid until May 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 51 Kingsway. 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 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR1 0ED, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
51 Kingsway is in council tax band E. 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.
