Held since February 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 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 sits 92.5% above the 2009 sale of £147,500. 6 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 72 m² it's 28% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (100 m² median across 9 EPCs).
