Overview

About 4 Ash Grove

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

4 Ash Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Preston (PR1 5QY). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (March 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Today's modelled estimate of £201,000 sits 60.8% above the 2017 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£114/sq ft) was about 171.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 9 years ago, in March 2017. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2008.
