The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 39 m² it sits well below the postcode median (147 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 7 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 5 refused. Past consents include an annexe, a garage conversion and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £483,000 is 24.8% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£920/sq ft) was about 257.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
