About 28a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
28a is a semi-detached house in Hartlepool (TS25 1AD). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since January 2001 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 84 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £148,000 sits 377.4% above the 2001 sale of £31,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£34/sq ft) was about 73.2% below the postcode norm.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 28a is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TS25 1AD. 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 28a. 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 28a was lodged in March 2015 at band D and expired in March 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 5 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 28a. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TS25 1AD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 28a is in council tax band B. 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.
