Overview

About 10 Cubic

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

10 Cubic is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 2AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 532 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band A. At 49 m² this is the 17th smallest of 46 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 38–78 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 46 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 is 11.7% below the 2010 sale of £120,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£226/sq ft) was about 71.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since December 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 10 Cubic is modelled from its 49 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR1 2AQ. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 10 Cubic. 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 10 Cubic was lodged in January 2011 at band C and expired in January 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 10 Cubic. 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 41 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR1 2AQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
10 Cubic 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.
