It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E.

The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 97), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
