The latest certificate (June 2011) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 58), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 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 481 m² the property is well over the postcode median (136 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £765,000 sits 75.9% above the 2008 sale of £435,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£84/sq ft) was about 45.9% below the postcode norm. 8 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent and conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
