Overview

About 8 Cairnsmore Avenue

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

8 Cairnsmore Avenue is a semi-detached house in Preston (PR1 4UN). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 800 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £148,000 is 23.3% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£150/sq ft) was about 16% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
