3 County Chambers, Pentonville, Newport, NP20 5HB
About 3 County Chambers
3 County Chambers is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Newport (NP20 5HB). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 84 m² this is the 5th smallest of 7 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–99 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 84 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 47 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 6 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in September 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Today's modelled estimate of £171,000 is 24.4% above the 2015 sale price.
