Overview

About 1a

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

1a is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Newport (NP20 4GN). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2024) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2009 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 Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). At 42 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 35 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–175 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 35 units on file.

At 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (98 m² across 34 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £130,000 is 30% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£221/sq ft) was about 106.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
