Overview

About 12 Cypress Grove

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

12 Cypress Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Durham (DH1 1DN). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1046 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2024.
