About 26 Humber Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
26 Humber Close is a mid-terrace house in Bettws, Newport, Newport (NP20 7RR). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (April 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 99 m² it's 25.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (79 m² median across 19 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £163,000 sits 380.1% above the 1996 sale of £33,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£32/sq ft) was about 62.4% below the postcode norm.
