The latest certificate (March 2009) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 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.
