About 8 Elm Street West
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Elm Street West is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sunniside, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE16 5LT). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 102 m² it's 20.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (85 m² median across 10 EPCs). Across 1997–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £247,000 is 35% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£167/sq ft) was about 33.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 8 Elm Street West is modelled from its 102 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NE16 5LT. 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 Elm Street West. 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 Elm Street West was lodged in June 2016 at band D and expired in June 2026, 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. None is matched to 8 Elm Street West. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NE16 5LT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Elm Street West is in council tax band B. 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.
