Held since January 1997 — 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 £181,000 sits 285.1% above the 1997 sale of £47,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£46/sq ft) was about 63.7% below the postcode norm. At 94 m² it's 23% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (122 m² median across 30 EPCs).
