About The Turnbull
The Turnbull is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE1 1NA). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at -1.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £135,000 is 12.5% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 18.4% below the postcode norm. At 50 m² it's 16.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (60 m² median across 55 EPCs).
