About 20 Alexander Street

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

20 Alexander Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Darlington (DL1 2JY). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2012) shows a G (score 20), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 4-band jump.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 20 Alexander Street is modelled from its 61 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DL1 2JY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 20 Alexander Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 20 Alexander Street was lodged in December 2012 at band G and expired in December 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 20 Alexander Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DL1 2JY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
20 Alexander Street is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
