It has a recorded floor area of 190 m² (around 2041 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an F (score 25), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 41). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Past consents include new windows, an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
