Across 1996–2025, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,044,000 is 10.2% below the 2025 sale of £1,162,500, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2026. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
