Overview

About 5 Alder Close

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

5 Alder Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Hesketh Bank, Preston, Preston (PR4 6JD). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 90). The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Held since October 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. Today's modelled estimate of £149,000 sits 98.7% above the 2009 sale of £75,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£83/sq ft) was about 28.1% below the postcode norm.

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 5 Alder Close is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR4 6JD. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Alder Close. 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 5 Alder Close was lodged in May 2013 at band C and expired in May 2023, 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. None is matched to 5 Alder Close. 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 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR4 6JD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Alder Close is in council tax band B. 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.
