Held since May 1997 — that's 29 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. At 130 m² the property is well over the postcode median (72 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £647,000 sits 397.7% above the 1997 sale of £129,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 76.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
