It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2021) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2013.

Held since December 2007 — that's 18 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 £340,000 sits 78.9% above the 2007 sale of £190,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£304/sq ft) was about 34.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 58 m² it's 15.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (69 m² median across 23 EPCs).
