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

16 Burholme Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ribbleton, Preston, Preston (PR2 6HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A.
