About 14 Nicholas Avenue
14 Nicholas Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Whitburn, Sunderland, Sunderland (SR6 7DB). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68).

It hasn't traded since November 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. Today's modelled estimate of £302,000 sits 211.3% above the 1996 sale of £97,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£83/sq ft) was about 64% below the postcode norm. At 109 m² it sits well below the postcode median (188 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
