Overview

About The Lodge

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

The Lodge is a detached house in Croston, Leyland, Leyland (PR26 9HB). It has a recorded floor area of 338 m² (around 3638 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 338 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). 13 planning records sit against the property, 8 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent and conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. On the market in January 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years. Today's modelled estimate of £1,353,000 is 36% above the 2015 sale price.
