It has a recorded floor area of 151 m² (around 1625 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a C (score 70).

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.
