Overview

About 4 Cottingham Grove

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

4 Cottingham Grove is a three-bedroom detached house in Thornley, Durham, Durham (DH6 3EJ). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1017 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a C (score 74). The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot.

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £180,000 is 14.2% above the 2007 sale price.
