Held since January 2007 — that's 20 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 240 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £610,000 sits 93.7% above the 2007 sale of £315,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£122/sq ft) was about 19.7% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
