It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 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. Today's modelled estimate of £523,000 sits 97.4% above the 2007 sale of £265,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£234/sq ft) was about 28.9% below the postcode norm. At 105 m² it's 29.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (81 m² median across 5 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007.
