Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 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. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £242,000 is 28.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£349/sq ft) was about 18.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
