Mavis Cottage, Glebe Villas, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE12 7PS

Mavis Cottage is a detached house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE12 7PS). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 1997 — that's 29 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 121 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £269,000 sits 301.5% above the 1997 sale of £67,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£51/sq ft) was about 58.7% 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.
