Overview

About Meadowvale

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

Meadowvale is a four-bedroom detached house in Elswick, Preston, Preston (PR4 3YB). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1442 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (July 2018) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band.

It hasn't traded since August 2004, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1998–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 14% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £447,000 sits 51.5% above the 2004 sale of £295,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£205/sq ft) was about 32.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
