Overview

About 79 Great North Road

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

79 Great North Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Grange Park, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE3 2DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. At 88 m² this is the 27th smallest of 36 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 60–248 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 36 units on file.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in October 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 88 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £173,000 is 19.3% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£153/sq ft) was about 18.5% below the postcode norm.
