Held since November 1996 — that's 30 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 96 m² it's 24.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 13 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £428,000 sits 529.4% above the 1996 sale of £68,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£66/sq ft) was about 71.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
