Held since September 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. At 119 m² it sits well below the postcode median (282 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2000. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £705,000 is 43.9% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£383/sq ft) was about 76.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
