Held since May 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. Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £676,000 sits 80.3% above the 2008 sale of £375,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£218/sq ft) was about 32.1% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 160 m² it's 20.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (133 m² median across 23 EPCs).
