Overview

About 7 Barlby Drive

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

7 Barlby Drive is a semi-detached house in Darlington (DL3 0QD). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (August 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
