Overview

About Mornycroft

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

Mornycroft is a four-bedroom detached house in Cabus, Preston, Preston (PR3 1AA). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2012); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 59), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2004, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. At 106 m² it sits well below the postcode median (162 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 2003–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £416,000 is 46% above the 2004 sale price.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Mornycroft is modelled from its 106 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR3 1AA. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for Mornycroft. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Mornycroft was lodged in August 2016 at band F and expired in August 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Mornycroft. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 3 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR3 1AA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Mornycroft is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
