It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63).

Held since August 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.
