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.

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.
