Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 128 m² the property is well over the postcode median (79 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £533,000 sits 113.2% above the 2009 sale of £250,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
