It has a recorded floor area of 301 m² (around 3240 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2010.

The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
