It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (November 2024) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).
It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 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. Today's modelled estimate of £190,000 sits 75.9% above the 2007 sale of £108,000. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 84% of similar EPCs).
