About Flat 1
Flat 1 is a mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 3SX). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 39 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (39–48 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (66 versus a worst of 50). The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
