Held since April 2007 — that's 19 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. At 171 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £626,000 sits 131.9% above the 2007 sale of £270,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£147/sq ft) was about 38.7% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
