Overview

About 5 Bilsborough Hey

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

5 Bilsborough Hey is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Penwortham, Preston, Preston (PR1 9UQ). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since August 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £204,000 sits 246.1% above the 1999 sale of £58,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£55/sq ft) was about 61.1% below the postcode norm. At 100 m² it's 20.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (83 m² median across 9 EPCs).
