Get started26 Melville Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Newcastle Upon Tyne (NE7 7AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 142 m² (around 1528 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 142 m² the property is well over the postcode median (107 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £271,000 is 26% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 16.7% below the postcode norm. Last changed hands 13 years ago, in July 2013.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
