About 13b

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good.
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 39 m² it sits well below the postcode median (71 m² across 55 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 82% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£357/sq ft) was about 219.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
