Held since January 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property.

Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £458,000 sits 113% above the 2009 sale of £215,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£204/sq ft) was about 44.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2013.
