Overview

About 21 The Front

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

21 The Front is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Middleton One Row, Darlington, Darlington (DL2 1AS). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

At 94 m² it sits well below the postcode median (143 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £252,000 is 44% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£173/sq ft) was about 47.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 21 The Front is modelled from its 94 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DL2 1AS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 21 The Front. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 21 The Front was lodged in August 2014 at band F and expired in August 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 21 The Front. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 25 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DL2 1AS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
21 The Front is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
