Overview

About 12 Howard House

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

12 Howard House is a mid-terrace house in Darlington (DL3 7QG). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 344 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. At 32 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (32–57 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 14 units on file. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£310/sq ft) was about 22.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 32 m² it's 15.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (38 m² median across 13 EPCs).
