Held since June 2008 — 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 317 m² the property is well over the postcode median (185 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 12% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,700,000 sits 193.1% above the 2008 sale of £580,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£170/sq ft) was about 44.5% below the postcode norm. 7 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
