It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900.

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 46). Main heating runs on electricity.
A recent sale: £420,000 in December 2025. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
