About This Property

This semi-detached house is located in PRESTON, PR4 4AP. The property offers 139m² (1496 sq ft) of spacious living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. The property holds an EPC rating of C (70/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation.

Double glazing is installed, though the efficiency rating suggests older units. Modern low-E double glazing can be up to 40% more efficient than units installed before 2002. Estimated annual energy costs are £1055, comprising £873 for heating, £109 for hot water, and £73 for lighting. The property produces 3.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home. The property last sold in April 2015 for £220,500.
