About 55 Crossgate
55 Crossgate is a mid-terrace house in Durham (DH1 4PR). It has a recorded floor area of 221 m² (around 2379 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in February 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).
It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 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 221 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £585,000 sits 79.4% above the 2007 sale of £326,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£137/sq ft) was about 55.7% below the postcode norm.
