5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Today's modelled estimate of £369,000 is 12.5% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£216/sq ft) was about 76.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. At 141 m² it's 29.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (199 m² median across 9 EPCs).
