Overview

About 26 Rockburgh Crescent

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

26 Rockburgh Crescent is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Walmer Bridge, Preston, Preston (PR4 5RD). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 101), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings.

At 101 m² it's 17.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (86 m² median across 25 EPCs). Across 2001–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £261,000 is 16% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£207/sq ft) was about 16.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 26 Rockburgh Crescent is modelled from its 101 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR4 5RD. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 26 Rockburgh Crescent. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 26 Rockburgh Crescent was lodged in September 2015 at band D and expired in September 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 26 Rockburgh Crescent. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR4 5RD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
26 Rockburgh Crescent is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
