Overview

About 8 Beech Avenue

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

8 Beech Avenue is a two-bedroom detached house in Whickham, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE16 4SU). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 963 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. At 89 m² it sits well below the postcode median (188 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). 6 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows, a loft conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £324,000 is 30.6% above the 2011 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£257/sq ft) was about 22.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 Beech Avenue is modelled from its 89 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NE16 4SU. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 8 Beech Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 8 Beech Avenue was lodged in August 2009 at band E and expired in August 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to 8 Beech Avenue. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NE16 4SU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Beech Avenue is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
