5 East View, Preston, PR1 5AS
About 5 East View
5 East View is a mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £133,000 sits 216.7% above the 1999 sale of £42,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£33/sq ft) was about 34.3% below the postcode norm. At 118 m² it's 21.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (151 m² median across 29 EPCs).
