Overview

About 17 Kelvin Grove

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

17 Kelvin Grove is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE2 1RL). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. At 105 m² this is the 58th smallest of 68 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 56–120 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (July 2018) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since June 1997, a hold of 29 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. At 105 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 67 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £188,000 sits 317.8% above the 1997 sale of £45,000.

Method

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 17 Kelvin Grove is modelled from its 105 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NE2 1RL. 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 17 Kelvin Grove. 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 17 Kelvin Grove was lodged in July 2018 at band E and is valid until July 2028. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 17 Kelvin Grove. 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 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NE2 1RL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Kelvin Grove 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.
