It hasn't traded since September 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 199 m² the property is well over the postcode median (127 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £586,000 sits 73.4% above the 2010 sale of £338,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£158/sq ft) was about 38.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
