How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4 East View is modelled from its 99 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR1 5AS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 4 East View
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 East View is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since October 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 99 m² it sits well below the postcode median (151 m² across 29 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2007–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£117/sq ft) was about 222.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 4 East View is modelled from its 99 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR1 5AS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 4 East View. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 4 East View was lodged in July 2015 at band E and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 4 East View. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 44 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR1 5AS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 4 East View is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
