About 55 Kingsway

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

55 Kingsway is a three-bedroom detached house in Penwortham, Preston, Preston (PR1 0ED). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1213 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an F (score 24), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 65), a 2-band jump.
