It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. At 58 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (38–58 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (73 versus a worst of 66). The latest certificate (September 2022) shows a C (score 73). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average.

It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 18 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 58 m² the property is well over the postcode median (42 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 77% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £237,000 is 28.1% above the 2008 sale price.
