About 1 Church Street
1 Church Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Toronto, Bishop Auckland, Bishop Auckland (DL14 7RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
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. Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 sits 445.5% above the 1998 sale of £22,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£26/sq ft) was about 59.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
