It hasn't traded since June 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 243 m² the property is well over the postcode median (123 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £526,000 sits 264% above the 1999 sale of £144,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£55/sq ft) was about 83% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
