Held since March 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. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 0.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £572,000 sits 183.9% above the 2009 sale of £201,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 21.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 111 m² it's 22% larger than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 18 EPCs).
