The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 sits 361.5% above the 1997 sale of £26,000.
