Overview

About 17 Cottam Green

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

17 Cottam Green is a three-bedroom detached house in Cottam, Preston, Preston (PR4 0AB). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2021) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.

Today's modelled estimate of £223,000 sits 710.9% above the 2007 sale of £27,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£32/sq ft) was about 71% below the postcode norm. At 80 m² it's 27.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (111 m² median across 38 EPCs).
