About 19 City Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
19 City Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 1DY). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band A. At 77 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (41–77 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 25 units on file. The home occupies a corner plot. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in October 2019 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Held since January 2007 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 77 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 23.9% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 58.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 19 City Court is modelled from its 77 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR1 1DY. 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 19 City Court. 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 19 City Court was lodged in March 2026 at band C and is valid until March 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. None is matched to 19 City Court. 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 38 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR1 1DY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 19 City Court is in council tax band A. 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.
