About 6 Maplebank
6 Maplebank is a four-bedroom detached house in Lea, Preston, Preston (PR2 1WB). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1536 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since February 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 143 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 is 36.5% above the 2010 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£135/sq ft) was about 26.4% below the postcode norm.
