Mellbecks House is a mid-terrace house in Kirkby Stephen (CA17 4AB). It has a recorded floor area of 179 m² (around 1927 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74).

Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
