About 3 Crompton Street
3 Crompton Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 5RT). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area.
