The latest certificate (March 2009) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 52 m² it sits well below the postcode median (104 m² across 30 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £159,000 is 13.6% above the 2009 sale price.
