Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in December 1995. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 157 m² the property is well over the postcode median (82 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £377,000 sits 454.4% above the 1995 sale of £68,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£40/sq ft) was about 77.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
