About The Bungalow
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
The Bungalow is a two-bedroom detached house in Samlesbury, Preston, Preston (PR5 0UA). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 795 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since October 2008. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 61), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 74 m² it sits well below the postcode median (163 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £292,000 is 16.8% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£314/sq ft) was about 70% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
