14 The Front is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Middleton One Row, Darlington, Darlington (DL2 1AP). It has a recorded floor area of 179 m² (around 1927 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 179 m² the property is well over the postcode median (127 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 4 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2003–2005, sale prices on this property compounded at 26.2% per year.
