Held since October 2007 — that's 19 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 139 m² the property is well over the postcode median (106 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £851,000 sits 143.1% above the 2007 sale of £350,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£234/sq ft) was about 33.7% below the postcode norm. 12 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
