Overview

About 6 Alcester Avenue

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

6 Alcester Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Penwortham, Preston, Preston (PR1 9XN). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1226 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 51). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £277,000 is 33.5% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 23.9% below the postcode norm.
