About 42 44
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
42 44 is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Newark (NG24 1BG). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1573 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 2003 — that's 23 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 146 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1995–2003, sale prices on this property compounded at 13% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £294,000 sits 65.2% above the 2003 sale of £178,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 42 44 is modelled from its 146 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NG24 1BG. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 42 44. 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 42 44 was lodged in February 2011 at band E and expired in February 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 42 44. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NG24 1BG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
