The latest certificate (November 2009) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 57).

Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 sits 59.5% above the 2017 sale of £200,000. Last sold in December 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
