Overview

About 13 Larbreck Avenue

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

13 Larbreck Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Elswick, Preston, Preston (PR4 3ZL). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
