Overview

About 7 Abbots Close

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

7 Abbots Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Kirkham, Preston, Preston (PR4 2XE). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £202,000 sits 320.8% above the 1997 sale of £48,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£53/sq ft) was about 69.5% below the postcode norm. At 84 m² it's 23.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (68 m² median across 5 EPCs).
