It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2004–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £2,415,000 sits 61.5% above the 2008 sale of £1,495,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£401/sq ft) was about 58.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 11 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include tree works, an extension, a porch and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
