Overview

About 6 Broadcroft

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

6 Broadcroft is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Longton, Preston, Preston (PR4 5NN). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2019) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.

Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £225,000 sits 73.1% above the 2009 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£149/sq ft) was about 15.4% below the postcode norm.
