About Skyline

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

The latest certificate (July 2023) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). Main heating runs on electricity. At 46 m² this is the 20th smallest of 82 units on EPC record in Skyline, where floor areas span 41–102 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 86 units on file.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
