The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 58), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since January 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 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at -6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £475,000 sits 58.3% above the 2007 sale of £300,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£244/sq ft) was about 30.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 1 refused. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
