The Windmill, Liverpool Road, Bretherton, Leyland, PR26 9AX

The Windmill is a five-bedroom detached house in Bretherton, Leyland, Leyland (PR26 9AX). It has a recorded floor area of 433 m² (around 4661 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2007 onwards. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe and attached land beyond the plot. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 433 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£105/sq ft) was about 44.6% below the postcode norm. 6 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.
