Income is money that you get from working, but you haven't worked to get this mortgage repayment, so I would say it's savings.
If it's your only property and just residential,I don't think it will be treated as income IMO.
As long as the house was your main residence (and a few other conditions are met), there's no CGT (or any other form of tax) to pay:
