Overview

About 7 Blackton Grove

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

7 Blackton Grove is a semi-detached house in Darlington (DL1 4EA). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2024) shows a C (score 71). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since July 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87).

It hasn't traded since March 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. Today's modelled estimate of £128,000 is 26.4% above the 2008 sale price.
