About 1 Avon House
1 Avon House is an end-of-terrace house in Preston (PR1 4YH). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 70 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in 1 Avon House, where floor areas span 63–70 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). Main heating runs on biomass.

Held since June 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
