Held since January 2011 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 170 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 55 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £638,000 sits 61.5% above the 2011 sale of £395,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£216/sq ft) was about 20.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: change of use to residential approved in 2011. Past consents include change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
