About 3 Hornby Croft
3 Hornby Croft is a detached house in Leyland (PR26 7UT). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in April 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 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 £249,000 sits 266.2% above the 1999 sale of £68,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
