Overview

About 8 Ayton Drive

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

8 Ayton Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Darlington (DL3 8DN). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since January 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £289,000 sits 207.1% above the 2000 sale of £94,100. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 47.1% below the postcode norm.
