The latest certificate (October 2010) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81).

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. At 52 m² it sits well below the postcode median (180 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs). On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£216/sq ft) was about 141.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
