Overview

About 10 Cottam Avenue

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

10 Cottam Avenue is a two-bedroom detached house in Ingol, Preston, Preston (PR2 3XD). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £193,000 sits 60.8% above the 2013 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£162/sq ft) was about 32.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 69 m² it's 17.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (84 m² median across 11 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Last sold in January 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
