19 Alvern Avenue is a semi-detached house in Fulwood, Preston, Preston (PR2 3QR).

Held since February 1998 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £173,000 sits 272% above the 1998 sale of £46,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£55/sq ft) was about 60.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 78 m² it's 15.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 9 EPCs).
