It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 119 m² it's 18.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (101 m² median across 18 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £227,000 sits 90.8% above the 2008 sale of £119,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 43.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: change of use to residential approved in 2011. Past consents include change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
