About 7 High Escomb
7 High Escomb is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Escomb, Bishop Auckland, Bishop Auckland (DL14 7ST). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2020) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 65 m² it's 26.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (88 m² median across 22 EPCs). Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £115,000 is 16.2% above the 2008 sale price.
