About 8a

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

The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£342/sq ft) was about 40.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2014.
