Overview

About 23 Rockburgh Crescent

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

23 Rockburgh Crescent is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Walmer Bridge, Preston, Preston (PR4 5RD). 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 (July 2015) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in September 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £217,000 sits 325.5% above the 1999 sale of £51,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£58/sq ft) was about 67.2% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2018.
