Today's modelled estimate of £1,557,000 is 17.2% below the 2015 sale of £1,880,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. At 189 m² the property is well over the postcode median (111 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
