About 3 Dunnock Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Dunnock Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sunniside, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE16 5XJ). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 56 m² this is the 7th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–108 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 18 units on file. The latest certificate (April 2025) shows a C (score 72).
Held since May 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 56 m² it sits well below the postcode median (86 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £110,000 is 25% above the 2007 sale price.
