About 8 Forge Mews

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

8 Forge Mews is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bassaleg, Newport, Newport (NP10 8NE). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in February 2011 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since.

The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89).

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
