It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. At 96 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across 2 Beechcroft (96–142 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 96 m² it sits well below the postcode median (138 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £297,000 is 10% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£261/sq ft) was about 31.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
