Flat 1, 10 Osborne Terrace, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE2 1NE

Flat 1 is a mid-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE2 1NE). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 946 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 88 m² this is the 7th smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 64–96 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (59 versus a best of 79). The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 is 18% below the 2007 sale of £305,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£322/sq ft) was about 18.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since June 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. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. At 88 m² it's 22.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (72 m² median across 74 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs).
