About 12 The Room Apartments
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
12 The Room Apartments is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 2QF). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. At 66 m² this is the 57th smallest of 78 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–70 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 78 units on file.

Today's modelled estimate of £104,000 is 18.8% below the 2009 sale of £128,107, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in March 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
