About Keld House
Keld House is an end-of-terrace house in Bishop Auckland (DL14 7DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since June 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Most recent transfer: November 2022 at £117,500. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £133,000 is 13.2% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£121/sq ft) was about 51.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
