Overview

About 23 Bek Road

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

23 Bek Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Durham (DH1 5LD). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (April 2018) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86).

It hasn't traded since May 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. Today's modelled estimate of £165,000 sits 50% above the 2007 sale of £110,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
