Overview

About 13 Barnstaple Way

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

13 Barnstaple Way is a four-bedroom detached house in Cottam, Preston, Preston (PR4 0LY). It has a recorded floor area of 195 m² (around 2099 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (December 2015) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 195 m² the property is well over the postcode median (120 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £439,000 is 30.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£161/sq ft) was about 20.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
