It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A.

Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

Held since January 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £248,000 sits 406.1% above the 2005 sale of £49,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£48/sq ft) was about 70.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 95 m² it's 27.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 26 EPCs).
