Held since July 2008 — that's 18 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 255 m² the property is well over the postcode median (148 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. 14 planning records sit against the property, 10 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 2005–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £891,000 is 29.1% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£251/sq ft) was about 65.7% below the postcode norm.
