The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 390 m² the property is well over the postcode median (236 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £1,000,000 is 40.8% above the 2008 sale price.
