Higher House Farm is a detached house in Longridge, Preston, Preston (PR3 2DB). It has a recorded floor area of 185 m² (around 1991 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
