Overview

About 3 Dumfries Close

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

3 Dumfries Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Sunderland (SR4 8RR). It has a recorded floor area of 177 m² (around 1905 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 177 m² the property is well over the postcode median (132 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 is 17.1% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£127/sq ft) was about 21.9% below the postcode norm. Most recent transfer: February 2021 at £242,500. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Dumfries Close is modelled from its 177 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SR4 8RR. 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 3 Dumfries Close. 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 3 Dumfries Close was lodged in April 2012 at band C and expired in April 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 3 Dumfries Close. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SR4 8RR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Dumfries Close is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
