A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

At 35 m² this is the 7th smallest of 54 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 24–269 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 54 units on file. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
