Held since April 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £249,000 sits 95.3% above the 2001 sale of £127,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£197/sq ft) was about 26.2% below the postcode norm. At 60 m² it's 16.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (52 m² median across 36 EPCs).
