About 8 Queens Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Queens Road is a mid-terrace house in Jesmond, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE2 2PP). It has a recorded floor area of 254 m² (around 2734 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2020) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area.

At 254 m² the property is well over the postcode median (130 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £689,000 sits 53.1% above the 2008 sale of £450,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£165/sq ft) was about 27.1% below the postcode norm.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 8 Queens Road is modelled from its 254 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NE2 2PP. 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 8 Queens 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 8 Queens Road was lodged in March 2020 at band D and is valid until March 2030. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 8 Queens 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 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NE2 2PP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Queens Road is in council tax band E. 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.
