It has a recorded floor area of 214 m² (around 2303 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.

Past consents include new windows and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.

That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
