It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89).

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 67 m² the property is well over the postcode median (51 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £230,000 sits 55.9% above the 2007 sale of £147,500.
