It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Sale prices here have outpaced Norwich HPI: 4.3% per year against 0% for the wider region. Today's modelled estimate of £269,000 sits 91.5% above the 2007 sale of £140,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£211/sq ft) was about 83.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (112 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
