Overview

About 18 Badgers Croft

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

18 Badgers Croft is a three-bedroom detached house in Ribbleton, Preston, Preston (PR2 6NW). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in February 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 70% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £208,000 is 44.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£156/sq ft) was about 87.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
