At 50 m² this is the 5th smallest of 33 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–90 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (62 versus a best of 84). The latest certificate (February 2017) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £121,000 is 19.3% below the 2007 sale of £149,950, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£279/sq ft) was about 20% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 50 m² it's 16% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (60 m² median across 32 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs).
