Overview

About 4 Clarence Street

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

4 Clarence Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bowburn, Durham, Durham (DH6 5BB). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2019) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since April 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. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £108,000 is 42.1% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£70/sq ft) was about 46% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
