Overview

About 10 Dickens Wynd

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

10 Dickens Wynd is a four-bedroom detached house in Durham (DH1 3QR). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2022) shows a C (score 71). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2009.

Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
