Held since April 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.

Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £963,000 sits 129.3% above the 2007 sale of £420,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£154/sq ft) was about 38.9% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused.
