It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 506 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. At 47 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 45–112 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 12 units on file. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band.

Held since December 1995 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £163,000 sits 475% above the 1995 sale of £28,350. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£56/sq ft) was about 81.5% below the postcode norm. At 47 m² it sits well below the postcode median (81 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2012.
