Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2008–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £341,000 sits 54.3% above the 2009 sale of £221,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 23.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
