5 De Lacy Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ashton-On-Ribble, Preston, Preston (PR2 2DD). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony.

It hasn't traded since June 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 85 m² the property is well over the postcode median (62 m² across 81 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £115,000 sits 342.3% above the 1995 sale of £26,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£28/sq ft) was about 72.8% below the postcode norm.
