Overview

About 5 Charles Grove

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

5 Charles Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Longridge, Preston, Preston (PR3 3FL). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2015. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).

It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £211,000 is 37.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 68.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Charles Grove is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR3 3FL. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Charles Grove. 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 5 Charles Grove was lodged in November 2025 at band D and is valid until November 2035. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5 Charles Grove. 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 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR3 3FL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Charles Grove is in council tax band B. 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.
