Held since October 2008 — that's 18 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. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1997–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £235,000 is 23.7% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£228/sq ft) was about 155.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
