Overview

About 21 Birch Avenue

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

21 Birch Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ashton-On-Ribble, Preston, Preston (PR2 1JU). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 859 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in September 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2006–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £212,000 is 29.3% above the 2009 sale price.
