Overview

About 30 Longridge Road

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

30 Longridge Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Chipping, Preston, Preston (PR3 2QD). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1507 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2025) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views.

Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 140 m² it's 23.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (114 m² median across 18 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £354,000 is 24.2% above the 2009 sale price.
