Held since November 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 115 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £355,000 sits 65.1% above the 2007 sale of £215,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2002.
