It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,169,000 is 34.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£425/sq ft) was about 39.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
