Overview

About 4 Longridge Road

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

4 Longridge Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chipping, Preston, Preston (PR3 2QD). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on dual fuel. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 79 m² it sits well below the postcode median (120 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in January 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. Today's modelled estimate of £229,000 is 36.7% above the 2017 sale price.
