At 73 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (36–73 m²). The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (June 2026) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in July 2016 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 73 m² it's 23.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (59 m² median across 19 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 84% of similar EPCs). Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £151,000 is 12.7% above the 2007 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2020.
