Overview

About 1 Walnut Tree Cottages

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

1 Walnut Tree Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Pilling, Preston, Preston (PR3 6HU). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £384,000 is 20% above the 2008 sale price.
