Untraded for 28 years, with the last transfer in April 1998. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 132 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £598,000 sits 367.2% above the 1998 sale of £128,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£90/sq ft) was about 63.1% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
