Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 sits 220.5% above the 2007 sale of £44,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£31/sq ft) was about 63.4% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused.
