About 20 Carr Street
20 Carr Street is a mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 4HR). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 91), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in June 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £103,000 sits 87.3% above the 2009 sale of £55,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 44.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 68 m² it's 28.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (53 m² median across 32 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs).
