Overview

About 8 Fairfield Road

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

8 Fairfield Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Fulwood, Preston, Preston (PR2 8EL). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 sits 91.3% above the 2009 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£94/sq ft) was about 32.2% below the postcode norm.
