It has a recorded floor area of 219 m² (around 2354 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 43). Main heating runs on oil.
