About 3 East View
3 East View is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Haighton, Preston, Preston (PR2 5SH). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2021) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a loft. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 130 m² it sits well below the postcode median (254 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £246,000 is 26.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£139/sq ft) was about 33.8% below the postcode norm.
