About Lower Dutton Farm
Lower Dutton Farm is a detached house in Ribchester, Preston, Preston (PR3 3XX). It has a recorded floor area of 305 m² (around 3283 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2020) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
Today's modelled estimate of £754,000 is 12.8% below the 2020 sale of £865,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying.
