Held since December 2007 — that's 18 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. At 231 m² the property is well over the postcode median (40 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £809,000 sits 74% above the 2007 sale of £465,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£187/sq ft) was about 62.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 7 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
