5 North Terrace is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Gainford, Darlington, Darlington (DL2 3EE). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1433 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 47). Main heating runs on oil.
