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 136 m² the property is well over the postcode median (95 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 2005–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -1.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £331,000 sits 61.5% above the 2009 sale of £205,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£140/sq ft) was about 19.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
