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.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 54 Helmsley Road is modelled from its 125 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NE2 1DL. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 54 Helmsley Road. 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 54 Helmsley Road was lodged in June 2019 at band D and is valid until June 2029. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 54 Helmsley Road. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NE2 1DL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
54 Helmsley Road is in council tax band A. 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.
