Held since October 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 121 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £320,000 sits 58.8% above the 2007 sale of £201,500. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
