The estimate for The Acorns is modelled from its 168 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NE2 4RP. 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.

The Acorns is a detached house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE2 4RP). It has a recorded floor area of 168 m² (around 1808 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2019) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79).
It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 168 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £396,000 is 25.7% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£174/sq ft) was about 35.8% below the postcode norm.
The Acorns's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
