1a is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Newport (NP20 4HL). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2022) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. Other recorded features include a loft.
It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 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. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 25.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £190,000 sits 53% above the 2008 sale of £124,211. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
1a's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
