It hasn't traded since August 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 157 m² the property is well over the postcode median (79 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £196,000 sits 587.7% above the 1998 sale of £28,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£17/sq ft) was about 80.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
