About 138 Borough Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
138 Borough Road is a mid-terrace house in Middlesbrough (TS1 2ES). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 92 m² this is the 18th smallest of 24 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 15–266 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 24 units on file.
Across 2007–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £183,000 is 35.2% below the 2018 sale of £282,500, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£285/sq ft) was about 368.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 92 m² the property is well over the postcode median (50 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, HMO conversion and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

- Where sold prices come from
