Overview

About 2 Alverton Drive

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

2 Alverton Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Faverdale, Darlington, Darlington (DL3 0GA). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 113 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 45 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2017. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £259,000 is 12.1% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£190/sq ft) was about 41.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
