Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in July 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 307 m² the property is well over the postcode median (174 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £2,045,000 sits 121.1% above the 2008 sale of £925,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£280/sq ft) was about 45.7% below the postcode norm. 8 planning records sit against the property, 7 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, partial demolition and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
