About Chapel House
Chapel House is a detached house in Witton Park, Bishop Auckland, Bishop Auckland (DL14 0DF). It has a recorded floor area of 158 m² (around 1701 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 3-band jump.
Today's modelled estimate of £269,000 is 19.7% below the 2022 sale of £335,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£197/sq ft) was about 170.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 158 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last sale on file: £335,000 in January 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2024.
