Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in September 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 127 m² the property is well over the postcode median (95 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £697,000 sits 53.2% above the 2009 sale of £455,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£333/sq ft) was about 25.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2000. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
