Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Held since July 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

Today's modelled estimate of £228,000 sits 57.3% above the 2007 sale of £144,950. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
