Overview

About 3 Carleton Drive

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

3 Carleton Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Penwortham, Preston, Preston (PR1 0QT). It has a recorded floor area of 163 m² (around 1755 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band.

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. At 163 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £352,000 sits 110.1% above the 2007 sale of £167,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£95/sq ft) was about 48.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
