1 Clifton Street, Middlesbrough, TS1 4BZ

1 Clifton Street is an end-of-terrace house in Middlesbrough (TS1 4BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 160 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 30.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 is 23.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£52/sq ft) was about 25.6% below the postcode norm.
