Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 133 m² the property is well over the postcode median (99 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £458,000 sits 161.7% above the 2009 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£122/sq ft) was about 51.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
