Overview

About 2 Lidget Avenue

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

2 Lidget Avenue is a semi-detached house in Lea, Preston, Preston (PR2 1XU). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1862 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in February 2017 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

At 173 m² the property is well over the postcode median (116 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £242,000 sits 101.7% above the 2017 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£64/sq ft) was about 39.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 2 Lidget Avenue is modelled from its 173 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR2 1XU. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 2 Lidget Avenue. 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 2 Lidget Avenue was lodged in July 2026 at band C and is valid until July 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 2 Lidget Avenue. 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 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR2 1XU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Lidget Avenue is in council tax band B. 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.
