Held since November 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. At 189 m² the property is well over the postcode median (60 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£109/sq ft) was about 48.9% below the postcode norm. 8 planning records sit against the property, 8 approved, 0 refused.
