Overview

About 10 Crofts Drive

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

10 Crofts Drive is a detached house in Grimsargh, Preston, Preston (PR2 5LW). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2014. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
