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 144 m² the property is well over the postcode median (95 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £602,000 sits 91.1% above the 2009 sale of £315,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
