Overview

About 7 Eldon Street

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

7 Eldon Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Preston (PR1 7YD). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since October 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £124,000 sits 552.6% above the 1997 sale of £19,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£22/sq ft) was about 56.1% below the postcode norm. At 79 m² it's 16% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (94 m² median across 11 EPCs).
