8 Colenso Street, Hartlepool, TS26 9BD

8 Colenso Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Hartlepool (TS26 9BD). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £108,000 sits 80% above the 2008 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 63.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
