Overview

About 8 Archers Court

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

8 Archers Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Durham (DH1 4BP). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2020) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. At 66 m² this is the 5th smallest of 23 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 56–79 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. The home occupies a corner plot.

Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 Archers Court is modelled from its 66 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DH1 4BP. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 8 Archers Court. 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 8 Archers Court was lodged in July 2020 at band B and is valid until July 2030. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 8 Archers Court. 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 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DH1 4BP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Archers Court is in council tax band C. 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.
