Overview

About 15 John Dixon Lane

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

15 John Dixon Lane is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Darlington (DL1 1HG). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (October 2012) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2003 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £117,000 sits 112.9% above the 2003 sale of £54,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£90/sq ft) was about 41.6% below the postcode norm. At 57 m² it's 19.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (71 m² median across 29 EPCs).
