About 25 The Byway
25 The Byway is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Darlington (DL1 1EH). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £143,000 sits 68.2% above the 2011 sale of £85,000. Last sold in June 2011, so it's been off the market for around 15 years.
