About Bridge House

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. Today's modelled estimate of £737,000 sits 194.8% above the 2009 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£94/sq ft) was about 52.8% below the postcode norm. 10 planning records sit against the property, 9 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include solar panel installation and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 248 m² it's 16.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (213 m² median across 11 EPCs).
