About 71c
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
71c is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Darlington (DL3 7SF). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (March 2021) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record.
Held since March 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

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 71c is modelled from its 115 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DL3 7SF. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 71c. 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 71c was lodged in March 2021 at band E and is valid until March 2031. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 71c. 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 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DL3 7SF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
