10a New Row Cottages is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Knowle Green, Preston, Preston (PR3 2YS). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (January 2025) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2020 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on bottled lpg. Other recorded features include notable views and outbuildings. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since December 1999, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 sits 201.4% above the 1999 sale of £71,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£105/sq ft) was about 56.2% below the postcode norm. At 63 m² it's 24.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (83 m² median across 17 EPCs).
