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. At 392 m² the property is well over the postcode median (160 m² across 9 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 £557,000 sits 165.2% above the 2009 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£50/sq ft) was about 70% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2006.
