At 51 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 50–62 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81).
