Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 3-band jump.

Held since May 1999 — that's 27 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. At 358 m² the property is well over the postcode median (116 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £152,000 sits 253.5% above the 1999 sale of £43,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£11/sq ft) was about 80.9% below the postcode norm.
