Overview

About 17 Dalton Crescent

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

17 Dalton Crescent is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Durham (DH1 4FB). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 792 sq ft) and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 74 m² it sits well below the postcode median (122 m² across 53 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £285,000 is 29.5% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£278/sq ft) was about 38.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 Dalton Crescent is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DH1 4FB. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 17 Dalton Crescent. 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 17 Dalton Crescent was lodged in October 2008 at band C and expired in October 2018, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 17 Dalton Crescent. 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 10 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DH1 4FB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Dalton Crescent is in council tax band E. 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.
