Overview

About 387 Yarm Road

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

387 Yarm Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Darlington (DL1 1BE). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since October 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1997–1997, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £135,000 sits 409.4% above the 1997 sale of £26,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£32/sq ft) was about 67% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2004.
