About 12 Chester Crescent
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. The latest certificate (July 2018) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73).
It hasn't traded since May 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
