It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1362 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in July 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£139/sq ft) was about 39.3% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused, 2 pending. Past consents include an extension and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An application is currently awaiting a decision. The record references listed-building consent and conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
