Held since May 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 sits 76.3% above the 2009 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£140/sq ft) was about 91.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: subdivision approved in 2008. Past consents include subdivision and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 53 m² it's 20.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (67 m² median across 15 EPCs).
