Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 3-band jump.

Held since July 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. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 61 m² it's 29.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (87 m² median across 17 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £175,000 is 42.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£187/sq ft) was about 77% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
