Overview

About 1 Darnholme Crescent

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

1 Darnholme Crescent is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Messingham, Scunthorpe, Scunthorpe (DN17 3SL). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2023) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 88 m² it's 15.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (76 m² median across 8 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £160,000 is 36.8% above the 2008 sale price.
