Held since August 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £433,000 sits 381.4% above the 1996 sale of £89,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£78/sq ft) was about 67.1% below the postcode norm. At 107 m² it sits well below the postcode median (171 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
