Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in September 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 148 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £450,000 sits 100% above the 2009 sale of £225,000.
