About 17 Avon House

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

17 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 15th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–70 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 18 units on file. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on biomass. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
