About 6 Broadmeadows

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £239,000 sits 54.2% above the 2007 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£107/sq ft) was about 18.1% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 135 m² it's 29.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (104 m² median across 15 EPCs).
