Held since November 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 143 m² the property is well over the postcode median (53 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, a garage conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £478,000 is 47.1% above the 2007 sale price.
