Held since April 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 94 m² the property is well over the postcode median (72 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £313,000 sits 86.3% above the 2008 sale of £168,000. 10 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 6 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
