11 Deanery Court, Darlington, DL3 6AQ

11 Deanery Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Darlington (DL3 6AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2020) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. At 66 m² this is the 10th smallest of 24 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–78 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony.

Today's modelled estimate of £97,000 is 28.1% below the 2008 sale of £135,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs).
