Overview

About 5 Pesspool Avenue

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

5 Pesspool Avenue is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Haswell, Durham, Durham (DH6 2DR). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £146,000 sits 50.5% above the 2006 sale of £97,000.
