Overview

About 54 Helmsley Road

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

54 Helmsley Road is a mid-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE2 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1345 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79).

Today's modelled estimate of £177,000 is 47.2% below the 2022 sale of £335,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£249/sq ft) was about 56.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 125 m² the property is well over the postcode median (68 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Most recent transfer: November 2022 at £335,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
