Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in December 2007. 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 (104 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £889,000 sits 64.6% above the 2007 sale of £540,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£293/sq ft) was about 33.8% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
