Overview

About 5 Markington Drive

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

5 Markington Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Ryhope, Sunderland, Sunderland (SR2 0LB). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
