Held since January 2008 — 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 245 m² the property is well over the postcode median (176 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £789,000 sits 102.3% above the 2008 sale of £390,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£148/sq ft) was about 20.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
