Overview

About 16 Carleton Drive

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

16 Carleton Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Penwortham, Preston, Preston (PR1 0QT). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £308,000 is 38.1% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£218/sq ft) was about 17.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
