Overview

About 24 Finney Park Drive

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

24 Finney Park Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Lea, Preston, Preston (PR2 1QZ). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2022) returns a high B (score 89), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in August 2013 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 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. At 102 m² the property is well over the postcode median (75 m² across 41 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 2001–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 is 38.9% above the 2008 sale price.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 24 Finney Park Drive is modelled from its 102 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR2 1QZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 24 Finney Park Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 24 Finney Park Drive was lodged in July 2022 at band B and is valid until July 2032. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 24 Finney Park Drive. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR2 1QZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
24 Finney Park Drive is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
