Overview

About 4 Aldfield Avenue

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

4 Aldfield Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lea, Preston, Preston (PR2 1XQ). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in April 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 sits 69.5% above the 2014 sale of £105,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 44.6% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in June 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
