At 176 m² this is the 11th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 23–176 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64).
