About 1 Laburnum Road
1 Laburnum Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Ferryhill (DL17 0DS). It has a recorded floor area of 163 m² (around 1755 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot.
It hasn't traded since March 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 163 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2007–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £168,000 is 46.1% above the 2009 sale price.
