Overview

About 18 Caroline Street

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

18 Caroline Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 5UX). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in November 2008. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £110,000 is 29.4% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£129/sq ft) was about 80.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
