Overview

About 2 Downswood

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

2 Downswood is a detached house in Killingworth, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE12 6FD). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in November 2025 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since December 2000 — that's 26 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. Today's modelled estimate of £358,000 sits 251% above the 2000 sale of £102,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£69/sq ft) was about 32% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 137 m² it's 24.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (110 m² median across 6 EPCs).
