Overview

About Channings

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

Channings is a detached house in Forton, Preston, Preston (PR3 0BL). It has a recorded floor area of 201 m² (around 2160 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 66), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 201 m² the property is well over the postcode median (113 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in June 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Today's modelled estimate of £748,000 is 10.8% above the 2014 sale price.
