About 10 Beech Drive

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

10 Beech Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Newton, Preston, Preston (PR4 3TA). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2014.

Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 16% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £194,000 is 16.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£207/sq ft) was about 20.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
