Overview

About 149 Watling Street Road

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

149 Watling Street Road is a semi-detached house in Fulwood, Preston, Preston (PR2 8AE). It has a recorded floor area of 249 m² (around 2680 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 149 Watling Street Road is modelled from its 249 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR2 8AE. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 149 Watling Street Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 149 Watling Street Road was lodged in July 2013 at band E and expired in July 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 149 Watling Street Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 44 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR2 8AE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
149 Watling Street Road is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
