Held since December 1996 — that's 29 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. Today's modelled estimate of £382,000 sits 371.6% above the 1996 sale of £81,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£91/sq ft) was about 59.6% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
