Across 2017–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £261,000 is 13% below the 2021 sale of £300,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£472/sq ft) was about 113.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 6 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 59 m² it's 22.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (76 m² median across 26 EPCs). Sold September 2021 for £300,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
