Today's modelled estimate of £1,678,000 is 12.4% below the 2022 sale of £1,915,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£656/sq ft) was about 103.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 271 m² the property is well over the postcode median (187 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Sold November 2022 for £1,915,000.
