It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. At 98 m² this is the 60th smallest of 64 units on EPC record in The Bar, where floor areas span 42–109 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 64 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (August 2023) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £155,000 is 13.2% below the 2006 sale of £178,620, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 29.6% below the postcode norm. It hasn't traded since May 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. At 98 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 63 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs).
