Held since May 1999 — that's 27 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 £406,000 sits 306% above the 1999 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£118/sq ft) was about 47.1% below the postcode norm. At 79 m² it sits well below the postcode median (124 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
