About 8 Linden Fold
8 Linden Fold is a three-bedroom detached house in Elswick, Preston, Preston (PR4 3YF). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1265 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72).

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
