The latest certificate (October 2010) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 44).

Held since February 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 76 m² it's 23.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (100 m² median across 13 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £301,000 sits 56% above the 2007 sale of £193,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£236/sq ft) was about 15.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
