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.

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

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003.
