Held since August 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. At 165 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 76% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £552,000 sits 67.5% above the 2008 sale of £329,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£186/sq ft) was about 27.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
