About 163a
163a is a semi-detached house in Newport (NP19 0BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 60 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 53–303 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (62 versus a best of 72). The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £130,000 is 36.6% below the 2024 sale of £205,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£317/sq ft) was about 167.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 60 m² it's 25.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (81 m² median across 8 EPCs). Sold October 2024 for £205,000.
