Held since April 2007 — that's 19 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. Today's modelled estimate of £552,000 sits 60% above the 2007 sale of £345,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£272/sq ft) was about 37.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 118 m² it sits well below the postcode median (187 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
