Overview

About 17 Bullfinch Street

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

17 Bullfinch Street is a mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 6TP). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2016) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (July 2013); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since March 2003, a hold of 23 years that's notably long for the area. At 123 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £130,000 sits 251.4% above the 2003 sale of £37,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£28/sq ft) was about 66.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
