It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1976-1982. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a conservatory and attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot. The latest certificate (November 2020) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since August 2016. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
At 100 m² it sits well below the postcode median (152 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year.
