At 95 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (37–95 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the bottom.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 141 High Street is modelled from its 95 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME1 1EL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 141 High Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 141 High Street was lodged in January 2009 at band G and expired in January 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 4 applications are matched to 141 High Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 40 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME1 1EL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
