Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 sits 72.4% above the 2009 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£242/sq ft) was about 21.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2014. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 71 m² it's 21.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 29 EPCs).
