6 Chase Court, Rectory Lane, Whickham, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE16 4NL

6 Chase Court is an end-of-terrace house in Whickham, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE16 4NL). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. At 84 m² this is the 65th smallest of 66 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 36–84 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 is 12.5% below the 2009 sale of £174,950, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£193/sq ft) was about 17.3% below the postcode norm. Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in June 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 84 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 65 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).
