Held since June 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 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (121 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £430,000 sits 130.6% above the 2009 sale of £186,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£274/sq ft) was about 32.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
