It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil.

Past consents include new windows, an extension, tree works and a basement excavation, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
