15 Berkeley Grove, Bishop Auckland, DL14 6LY

15 Berkeley Grove is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Bishop Auckland (DL14 6LY). It has a recorded floor area of 119 m² (around 1281 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since January 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £194,000 sits 55.2% above the 2011 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£98/sq ft) was about 29.8% below the postcode norm. At 119 m² it's 16.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (102 m² median across 13 EPCs).
