Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £1,086,000 sits 189.6% above the 1999 sale of £375,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£170/sq ft) was about 55.2% below the postcode norm. At 205 m² it sits well below the postcode median (305 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
