20 Allenby Avenue, Fulwood, Preston, PR2 8DL

20 Allenby Avenue is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Fulwood, Preston, Preston (PR2 8DL). It has a recorded floor area of 156 m² (around 1679 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

Held since August 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £338,000 sits 307.2% above the 1999 sale of £83,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£49/sq ft) was about 69% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 156 m² it's 17.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (133 m² median across 5 EPCs).
