Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. Main heating runs on electricity. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £183,000 is 46.4% above the 2009 sale price.
