About 3 St Lawrences Avenue

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

3 St Lawrences Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Barton, Preston, Preston (PR3 5AN). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C.
