About 7 Houston Road
7 Houston Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rugby (CV21 1BS). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A.

Held since September 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 104 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 42 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £180,000 is 44% above the 2007 sale price.
