Overview

About 8 Birchgate Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

8 Birchgate Road is a semi-detached house in Middlesbrough (TS5 5NP). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in June 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 94 m² it's 16% larger than the typical home in the postcode (81 m² median across 19 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £155,000 is 36% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£113/sq ft) was about 28% below the postcode norm. Last sold in December 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
