It hasn't traded since May 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 445 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2025. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£253/sq ft) was about 30% below the postcode norm.
