Overview

About Highfield

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

Highfield is a four-bedroom detached house in Chipping, Preston, Preston (PR3 2QH). It has a recorded floor area of 215 m² (around 2314 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 215 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2001–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.1% per year. Most recent transfer: August 2022 at £470,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Highfield is modelled from its 215 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR3 2QH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for Highfield. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Highfield was lodged in November 2012 at band D and expired in November 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Highfield. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 8 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR3 2QH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Highfield is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
