Overview

About 32 Bracken Road

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

32 Bracken Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Darlington (DL3 9LX). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a G (score 18), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 101 m² it's 29% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (142 m² median across 4 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £211,000 sits 68.8% above the 2014 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£115/sq ft) was about 15.2% below the postcode norm. Last sold in August 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
