29 Elvet Crescent, Durham, DH1 3AP
About 29 Elvet Crescent
29 Elvet Crescent is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Durham (DH1 3AP). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The latest certificate (September 2018) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in July 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 2 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £269,000 is 27.5% above the 2007 sale price.
