About 18 Kingsway West
18 Kingsway West is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Penwortham, Preston, Preston (PR1 0JA). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1045 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £243,000 sits 51.9% above the 2009 sale of £160,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£153/sq ft) was about 15.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
