About 346 Croston Road

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

346 Croston Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Farington Moss, Leyland, Leyland (PR26 6PN). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since May 2014. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 51 m² it sits well below the postcode median (133 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £199,000 is 44.7% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£250/sq ft) was about 27.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 12 years since the last transfer (August 2014). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
