About 18 Dartington Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Dartington Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Sunderland (SR4 9BW). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1422 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since June 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 132 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 39 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £170,000 is 48.1% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£81/sq ft) was about 44.9% below the postcode norm.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 18 Dartington Close is modelled from its 132 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SR4 9BW. 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 18 Dartington 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 18 Dartington Close was lodged in September 2011 at band C and expired in September 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 18 Dartington 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 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SR4 9BW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 18 Dartington Close is in council tax band C. 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.
