The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).

Held since June 2008 — that's 18 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 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (149 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1999–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£274/sq ft) was about 83.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
