It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. At 55 m² this is the 13th smallest of 32 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–408 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include notable views, a conservatory and outbuildings. The latest certificate (May 2022) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (January 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor.
