Overview

About 10 Barnstaple Way

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

10 Barnstaple Way is a five-bedroom detached house in Cottam, Preston, Preston (PR4 0LY). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in February 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 £375,000 sits 216.5% above the 1999 sale of £118,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£92/sq ft) was about 40.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 10 Barnstaple Way is modelled from its 120 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR4 0LY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 10 Barnstaple Way. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 10 Barnstaple Way was lodged in September 2015 at band C and expired in September 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 10 Barnstaple Way. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR4 0LY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
10 Barnstaple Way is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
