Held since November 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. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £665,000 sits 64.2% above the 2009 sale of £405,000.

At 155 m² it's 24.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (124 m² median across 9 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
