Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 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. At 211 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £738,000 sits 57% above the 2009 sale of £470,000. 13 planning records sit against the property, 11 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include tree works and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
