Held since March 2008 — that's 18 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 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (107 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: change of use to residential approved in 2009.
