The latest certificate (October 2023) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 45 m² this is the 4th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 42–101 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D across 12 units on file.
At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (78 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2005–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.7% per year.
