It hasn't traded since January 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 83 m² the property is well over the postcode median (32 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £452,000 sits 301.8% above the 1998 sale of £112,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£126/sq ft) was about 55.8% below the postcode norm.
