About 9 Larkspur Court
9 Larkspur Court is a four-bedroom detached house in Etherley Dene, Bishop Auckland, Bishop Auckland (DL14 0TW). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1442 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2014) returns a high B (score 87), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 134 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £275,000 sits 202.2% above the 1998 sale of £90,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£63/sq ft) was about 50.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
