It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band C. At 72 m² this is the 10th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 47–74 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom.
