Overview

About 7 Ballam Road

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

7 Ballam Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ashton-On-Ribble, Preston, Preston (PR2 1LR). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 114 m² it's 21.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (94 m² median across 8 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £173,000 is 33.1% above the 2022 sale price. Sold March 2022 for £130,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2003.
