About 17 Blackfriars Court
17 Blackfriars Court is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE1 4XB). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. At 52 m² this is the 31st smallest of 36 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 24–69 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (December 2018) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average, lighting went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £140,000 is 12.2% below the 2007 sale of £159,500, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£285/sq ft) was about 51% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since October 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. At 52 m² the property is well over the postcode median (40 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
