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

12 Chester Crescent is a seven-bedroom mid-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE2 1DH). It has a recorded floor area of 200 m² (around 2153 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C.
