About 12 Brierville

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

12 Brierville is a six-bedroom mid-terrace house in Durham (DH1 4QE). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1507 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (December 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump.

It hasn't traded since September 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 1 refused, 1 pending. An active application for an extension is awaiting a decision. Today's modelled estimate of £410,000 sits 127.8% above the 2000 sale of £179,950.
