About 12 Elgin Street
12 Elgin Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 6BH). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 sits 62.2% above the 2014 sale of £74,000. Last sold in September 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
