Overview

About 21a

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

21a is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Preston (PR1 2YJ). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 43 m² this is the 16th smallest of 34 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 30–50 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 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 2003–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £104,000 is 35.1% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£166/sq ft) was about 49.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
