About 5 Arklecrag
5 Arklecrag is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Washington (NE37 1RA). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (October 2018) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor.
Held since April 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 97 m² it's 15.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (84 m² median across 25 EPCs). Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £113,000 is 46.8% above the 2009 sale price.
