45 Chippenham Road is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Middlesbrough (TS4 3PH). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 344 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 32 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (32–84 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 23 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (July 2019) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good.

It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 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. Today's modelled estimate of £98,000 sits 50.8% above the 2008 sale of £65,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£189/sq ft) was about 126.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 32 m² it sits well below the postcode median (69 m² across 22 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. One planning record on file: subdivision refused in 2017.
