Held since November 2007 — that's 19 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 222 m² the property is well over the postcode median (149 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,174,000 sits 97.3% above the 2007 sale of £595,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
