The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (92 m² across 44 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2018. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £444,000 is 16.8% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£767/sq ft) was about 56% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: October 2022 at £380,000.
