Overview

About 39a

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

39a is a mid-terrace house in Preston (PR1 7EP). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 45 m² this is the 4th smallest of 16 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–142 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 45 m² it's 19.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (56 m² median across 15 EPCs). Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year.
