It hasn't traded since November 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area.

Across 2006–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £741,000 sits 54.4% above the 2008 sale of £480,000. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
