Overview

About 5 Derwentwater Place

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

5 Derwentwater Place is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Preston (PR1 6DL). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2025) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.

Held since November 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 18% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £115,000 is 29.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£136/sq ft) was about 36.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
