Overview

About 1 The Vale

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

1 The Vale is a two-bedroom detached house in Hartlepool (TS26 0AA). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2022) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in November 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85).

At 114 m² it sits well below the postcode median (180 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 78% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in November 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years. Today's modelled estimate of £306,000 is 45.7% above the 2012 sale price.

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 1 The Vale is modelled from its 114 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TS26 0AA. 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 1 The Vale. 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 1 The Vale was lodged in August 2022 at band C and is valid until August 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 The Vale. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TS26 0AA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 The Vale is in council tax band E. 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.
