Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in February 2007. 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 £490,000 sits 108.5% above the 2007 sale of £235,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£303/sq ft) was about 29.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
