About 4 Hillcross Walk

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good.

Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2007–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -4.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £192,000 sits 82.9% above the 2009 sale of £105,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£119/sq ft) was about 114.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 82 m² it's 26.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (65 m² median across 21 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs).
