It has a recorded floor area of 305 m² (around 3283 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F.

Today's modelled estimate of £754,000 is 12.8% below the 2020 sale of £865,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying.
