Held since October 2008 — that's 18 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. At 206 m² the property is well over the postcode median (136 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £1,143,000 sits 66.9% above the 2008 sale of £685,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£309/sq ft) was about 24.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 15 planning records sit against the property, 13 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, tree works, new windows and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
