At 53 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (49–53 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (55 versus a best of 75). Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 2008 — 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. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £136,000 is 38.8% above the 2008 sale price.
