About Sawpits Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Sawpits Cottage is a two-bedroom detached house in Out Rawcliffe, Preston, Preston (PR3 6TD). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot.
Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in December 1999. 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 £297,000 sits 116.8% above the 1999 sale of £137,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£174/sq ft) was about 19.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (203 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
