The latest certificate (November 2009) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 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. Today's modelled estimate of £383,000 sits 79.8% above the 2007 sale of £213,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£301/sq ft) was about 51.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (115 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007.
