Overview

About Vale House

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

Vale House is a detached house in Calder Vale, Preston, Preston (PR3 1SH). It has a recorded floor area of 316 m² (around 3401 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1991-1995. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £736,000 is 15.9% below the 2018 sale of £875,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£257/sq ft) was about 95% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 316 m² the property is well over the postcode median (99 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Most recent transfer: December 2018 at £875,000.
