Overview

About 8 Almoners Barn

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

8 Almoners Barn is a five-bedroom detached house in Durham (DH1 3TZ). It has a recorded floor area of 361 m² (around 3887 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1976-1982. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows a C (score 74). The latest certificate is from March 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). 14 planning records sit against the property, 12 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include tree works, an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2006–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.9% per year.
