It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since August 2009.

Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 141 m² the property is well over the postcode median (101 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £335,000 sits 71.8% above the 2009 sale of £195,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£128/sq ft) was about 31.9% below the postcode norm.
The EPC has just been inspected, so the rating reflects current condition.
