Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion, a basement excavation and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
