About Vale House
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.
