The estimate for 17 Belgrave Street is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DL1 4AN. 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.

17 Belgrave Street is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Darlington (DL1 4AN). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (August 2023) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in August 2012 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 78% of similar EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 1997–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £105,000 is 40% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£94/sq ft) was about 39.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
