Overview

About 8 Gowan Terrace

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

8 Gowan Terrace is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE2 2PS). It has a recorded floor area of 25 m² (around 269 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2017) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 25 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 26 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 24–278 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 26 units on file.

Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in August 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £322,000 sits 69.9% above the 1999 sale of £189,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£704/sq ft) was about 174% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 25 m² it sits well below the postcode median (48 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 7 planning records sit against the property, 7 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 8 Gowan Terrace is modelled from its 25 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NE2 2PS. 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 Gowan Terrace. 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 Gowan Terrace was lodged in March 2017 at band D and is valid until March 2027. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 7 applications are matched to 8 Gowan Terrace. 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 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NE2 2PS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Gowan Terrace 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.
