About The Turnbull
The Turnbull is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE1 1NA). It has a recorded floor area of 170 m² (around 1830 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2018) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in September 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and roof efficiency went from Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67). Main heating runs on electricity. At 170 m² this is the 54th smallest of 56 units on EPC record in The Turnbull, where floor areas span 36–239 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 56 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony.
Today's modelled estimate of £362,000 is 10.6% below the 2021 sale of £405,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£221/sq ft) was about 19.2% below the postcode norm. At 170 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 55 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Most recent transfer: March 2021 at £405,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
