About The Bar
The Bar is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE1 4BA). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. At 64 m² this is the 33rd smallest of 74 units on EPC record in The Bar, where floor areas span 44–111 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 74 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
