About 99b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
99b is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Carrville, Durham, Durham (DH1 1BQ). It has a recorded floor area of 25 m² (around 273 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 25 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (25–144 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (79 versus a worst of 36). The latest certificate (October 2011) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in April 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 25 m² it sits well below the postcode median (85 m² across 37 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2010. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 20.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £87,000 is 45% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£219/sq ft) was about 134.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 99b is modelled from its 25 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DH1 1BQ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 99b. 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 99b was lodged in October 2011 at band C and expired in October 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 99b. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DH1 1BQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 99b is in council tax band A. 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.
