About The Coach House
The Coach House is a five-bedroom detached house in Croston, Leyland, Leyland (PR26 9HB). It has a recorded floor area of 337 m² (around 3627 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. 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. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 337 m² the property is well over the postcode median (140 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). 5 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 2000–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,156,000 is 21.7% above the 2018 sale price. Most recent transfer: September 2018 at £950,000.
