About 9 Akenside House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
9 Akenside House is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE1 3UF). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1851 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 172 m² this is the 10th smallest of 11 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 77–181 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (40 versus a best of 83). Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (October 2018) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since March 2011. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump.
Held since January 2000 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 172 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
