Overview

About 1 Watling Street Road

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

1 Watling Street Road is a mid-terrace house in Fulwood, Preston, Preston (PR2 8EA). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. At 68 m² this is the 11th smallest of 41 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 14–352 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (April 2021) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (April 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good.

Held since November 2000 — that's 26 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 £138,000 sits 62.4% above the 2000 sale of £85,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£116/sq ft) was about 21.4% below the postcode norm. At 68 m² it sits well below the postcode median (118 m² across 40 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

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 1 Watling Street Road is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR2 8EA. 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 1 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 1 Watling Street Road was lodged in April 2021 at band C and is valid until April 2031. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 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 46 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR2 8EA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Watling Street Road is in council tax band D. 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.
