Overview

About 4 Ash Grove

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

4 Ash Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in St. Michaels, Preston, Preston (PR3 0TP). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in January 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 105), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
