Overview

About 20 Howard Street

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

20 Howard Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE1 2AZ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 71 m² this is the 13th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 54–122 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (76 versus a worst of 56). The latest certificate (April 2026) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in November 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since November 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. Today's modelled estimate of £133,000 is 44.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£120/sq ft) was about 37.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
