Local market context
4 Church Street is a semi-detached house in Churchtown, Preston, Preston (PR3 0HT). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2020) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump.
Untraded for 32 years, with the last transfer in January 1995. 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 £172,000 sits 519.8% above the 1995 sale of £27,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£41/sq ft) was about 83.2% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2025. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (154 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs).
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
