The estimate for 9a is modelled from its 110 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DL2 2SN. 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.

About 9a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
9a is an end-of-terrace house in Croft On Tees, Darlington, Darlington (DL2 2SN). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2022) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump.
At 110 m² it sits well below the postcode median (158 m² across 22 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 1997–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.5% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£211/sq ft) was about 50.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold December 2022 for £250,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2010.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 9a is modelled from its 110 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DL2 2SN. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 9a. 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 9a was lodged in September 2022 at band E and is valid until September 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 9a. 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 3 schools and 19 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DL2 2SN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 9a is in council tax band D. 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.
