Held since January 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. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2024. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £326,000 is 48.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£202/sq ft) was about 151.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
