Overview

About 24 Carr Drive

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

24 Carr Drive is a detached house in Wesham, Preston, Preston (PR4 3DS). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £194,000 sits 227.4% above the 1996 sale of £59,250. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£78/sq ft) was about 56.1% below the postcode norm. At 71 m² it sits well below the postcode median (106 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs).
