Overview

About 3 Argyll Close

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

3 Argyll Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Darlington (DL1 3PS). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (September 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

At 43 m² it sits well below the postcode median (82 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £146,000 is 36.4% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£231/sq ft) was about 92.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in December 2014, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
