Questions, answered

The DL16 report: your questions

What is the average house price in DL16?
The median sold price in DL16, County Durham was £135,000 across 250 recorded sales between 28 Oct 2025 and 23 Jul 2026. Most sales fell between £61,998 and £259,600. That is the median of real HM Land Registry transactions, not an estimate or a valuation.
Which schools are near DL16?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the DL16 district centre, the nearest being Rosa Street Primary and Nursery Academy (last Ofsted grade: Good). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid — they are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
Is DL16 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 DL16 postcodes we sampled run from decile 2 to decile 10, with a median of decile 3 of 10 — where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like DL16 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near DL16?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 506 applications within 500 m of the DL16 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in DL16 sold for?
Yes — this page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 246 distinct addresses in the records we hold for DL16, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
How up to date are the DL16 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 31 July 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Does DL16 cover my exact street?
DL16 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges — not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
