About 17a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

At 37 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (37–97 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the top.

Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
Held since May 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
