At 68 m² this is the 22nd smallest of 23 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–80 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
