Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 is 46.3% below the 2017 sale of £285,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works.

At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (119 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: subdivision approved in 2018.
