Held since December 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 156 m² the property is well over the postcode median (89 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £484,000 sits 348.1% above the 1997 sale of £108,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£64/sq ft) was about 61.6% below the postcode norm.
