About 10 Oakdene Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
10 Oakdene Avenue is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Darlington (DL3 7HS). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1254 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 48). The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 117 m² it sits well below the postcode median (188 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, new windows, an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 10 Oakdene Avenue is modelled from its 117 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DL3 7HS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 10 Oakdene Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 10 Oakdene Avenue was lodged in February 2010 at band F and expired in February 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 4 applications are matched to 10 Oakdene Avenue. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DL3 7HS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 10 Oakdene Avenue is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
