Overview

About 7 Akenside House

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

7 Akenside House is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE1 3UF). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 77 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (77–181 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 11 units on file. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good.

It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.6% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£290/sq ft) was about 53.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
