Overview

About 1 Tower Hill

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

1 Tower Hill is a four-bedroom detached house in Middleton St. George, Darlington, Darlington (DL2 1DU). It has a recorded floor area of 281 m² (around 3025 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2023) shows a C (score 73). Earlier certificates rated it B (September 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since November 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. Across 2006–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £741,000 sits 54.4% above the 2008 sale of £480,000. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
