Overview

About 6 Harcourt Street

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

6 Harcourt Street is a mid-terrace house in Darlington (DL3 6RB). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2019) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since November 2015. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since March 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £112,000 sits 659.3% above the 1996 sale of £14,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£25/sq ft) was about 61.7% below the postcode norm. At 54 m² it's 26.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (74 m² median across 32 EPCs).
