1a, Victoria Parade, Ashton On Ribble, Preston, PR2 1DS
About 1a
1a is a semi-detached house in Ashton-On-Ribble, Preston, Preston (PR2 1DS). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since January 1997 — that's 29 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 £281,000 sits 260.3% above the 1997 sale of £78,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£47/sq ft) was about 68.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
