Overview

About 13a

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

13a is a mid-terrace house in Gainford, Darlington, Darlington (DL2 3DL). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 68 m² this is the 7th smallest of 19 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–381 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2019) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in October 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor.

Today's modelled estimate of £124,000 is 18.4% below the 2019 sale of £152,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£208/sq ft) was about 53.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 68 m² it sits well below the postcode median (108 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

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 13a is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DL2 3DL. 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 13a. 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 13a was lodged in January 2019 at band C and is valid until January 2029. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 13a. 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 8 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DL2 3DL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
13a is in council tax band A. 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.
